Tundras eat gas! Chevys need 3 blocks to turn around!  Buy a Ford and spend money on guns!
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

Never owned a Dodge that was worth the price I paid for it.  Ford, Chevy and surprisingly Nissan have treated me really well.  If I was given a 2018 Dodge for free...I'd immediately sell it and buy a used something else.  Anything else!
I've owned 5. 03-07 is the best vintage, and if I could use emissions delete stuff I'd buy some of the newer Cummins with the 6 speed stick.

Never owned fords or thought much of them until riding in RTs Ford.......what a ride, it's like sitting on pillows..........it may or may not have rocked me to sleep once or twice.....

Wait, what??? Dodge I tell ya, dodge. :chuckle:

My dad bought Ford after Ford after Ford.  He once told me before he passed ...." I will continue to buy a ford until I get a good one.


 :tup:..Thats a great quote from your dad.

Haven't seen this in a while.  My boat and trailer weigh 9000-10000 lbs (depending on fuel load, etc.)  If you buy a Tundra, trying to pull that much, you will most likely die trying.  Just my opinion of course.
Look man, some times you just gotta roll the dice

I've owned Ford, Dodge and Chevy, Chevy's have given me the best performance and the least amount of repair work. Here is a photo of a friends 2018 F250 with 7, 400 miles after a 15 minutes, just a pile of aluminum puddles

I've driven a ford for work in the mts and the pre-2010 model f250 was awesome for low gear crawling and I've ridden in Rt's for 2 years and it's like rockin' a baby to sleep. Such a smooth ride. :chuckle:

But......go dodge! :tup:

I will never understand how guys can put any faith into Ford Motor Company after the 6.0 and 6.4.
They screwed a LOT of people.

Think that was more people than Chevy screwed over with the 2006-2009 5.3?  :dunno:
After what I went through with that I’ll never buy another new gm.
