New truck decision

Tundra 5.7 or F 150 Twin Eco Boost.

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

Hands down go for the Tundra.

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.

I say F150.

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 !!

Tundra

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.

Thanks to all.

F150 I have a 2016 and it awesome

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

I'd have never guessed.

Was very good friends with GM of Toyota dealership, always loved Toyotas, and rode in Tundras all the time, but it took me 5 minutes of driving my Dad's ecoboost to be convinced. Go with the F-150. American, always a plus. Gas mileage will be loads better in the Ford, that saves money over time, possibly to cover any repairs. (Haven't had to do any in my father's) Also the performance is just better. The 5.7 Tundra makes 380 hp and 400 ft lb of torque. Pretty stout, but the 3.5 ecoboost makes 365 hp, and 420 ft lb of torque. And those come lower in the RPM curve so that's more usable power. Even the 2.7 ecoboost makes 325 and 380 I believe. Father has the 2.7, it tows my 19 foot tandem axle boat better than my 5.4 triton, and the ride is super nice too. The ecoboost with the twin turbo will always be more fun to drive. They're peppy, you step on it and they respond. Tundras are sweet, but I've been convinced. Ford hands down.

At the end of the day though, it's up to you. Both great trucks, don't think you'll be upset either way. Whatever you like, go get it, and drive the heck out of it.
