This happened to me Saturday when going to Costco. Person in BMW slows from 45 mph to 5 mph right in front of my 8,200 pound truck because they missed the off ramp.

Instead of statistics or data, this is a long winded opinion piece. While I usually enjoy Jason’s analysis this was lacking in every way.

Except high pressure fuel models

The abrams turbine engine was selected from a 30+ year total cost of ownership perspective. Over the long term it has less maintenance costs than a similar power diesel engine.

sounds like a 10 year old....

great song

What the? I tried starring you and the count decreased?

Very true. My postman and woman (Married and both post office contractors) are paid by contract. They provide their own vehicles which are jeep xj two doors. They need something with the off road abilities here in the sierra nevada mountains. Many customers are dirt roads which get flooded out and covered in ice. They…

A 14 limited with low miles? That will run and run well for many years to come. Dumping it now is financial suicide. Whatever you get into next will depreciate whereas the 4runner has already finished the worst of its depreciation. I owned a Tacoma for 9 years and it only depreciated 25%. Sometimes I miss the Tacoma…

It’s an SUV. 4x4 body on frame SUVs need ground clearance.

It is pronounced “Gagh” also known as Klingon live worm dish. A delicacy!

They were both much roomier. The Ford has more comfortable and more adjustable seats plus the most interior space. Ultimately we compared the…

Bought a new factory order 2011 Ford F250 King Ranch. The saddle leather is open pore non-sealed so extremely susceptible to staining. It also has more cleaning and conditioning requirements. Beyond that... Every time I drive the truck it makes me smile. The interior still smells like fresh leather. The saddle leather…

yeah those nylon time chain gears look totally stout... blech

My 2011 F-250 6.7 liter diesel is quite heavy at 8,200 pounds (4x4, crew cab, camper shell). I always get over 20 MPG on the freeway. Now take an aluminum F150 with a 3 liter diesel, this is completely possible.
