I like them both, but I am a Toyota guy. I hate putting a truck in the shop.

I bought an F150 Ecoboost last week, the incentives on a 2016 at the local dealer got me out the door at a pretty good price. I drove a Tundra 4 door with the long bed, not the Crewmax, nice pickup but momma did not like it. I had to buy one since I got t-boned 3 weeks ago in my 2012 F150 and it was totaled. Sucks. I know several with Tundras, nice rides.

Both trucks cost a fortune to repair . As long as there under warranty there great . Toyota will have less repairs but cost a fortune when something goes wrong. Starter job is 1000 bucks . Buy extended warranty !!

Hmmm I don't know, I would have to drive them both and I haven't driven a late model tundra. I'm a big fan of the bottom end performance forced inductions brings to the table though. Ecoboost has been around long enough for me. I would likely go with an ecoboost. everyone I know that has one is really happy with it.

My 2011 F150 EcoBoost has 127k on it. Never once been in the shop and still runs smooth as silk. I hate to get rid of it but 127k is 127k. I'll probably buy a new one in a month or so. Nice to have a little equity in a truck for a change. But I hate the thought of another 5 years.

Whats wrong with 127K? I wouldn't even consider that high miles for vehicles built 20 years ago.

I've had good luck with by ecoboost but I like both trucks. Whichever you get a deal on, I guess.

That would probably make the decision for me also. I like the Tundra, but if they were dealing on Fords and not on Toyotas, I would go that route.

Tundra, that is what my next one will be provided I get the deal on the model I am looking for.
