I got a kick out of their ad showing the new tailgate that drops down slowly on their 2017 models. My 2011 Tundra has that on it as a standard feature. Shows just how far GM is behind Toyota. Except gas mileage.  and price.

Sorry but Toyota can't be beat for realibility and resale value.

I thought the title said Chevy most reliable AND pulled. I was going to agree.

I like the progressive ad making fun of the ads I like the if real people ads were real life videos on YouTube.
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

Those "Little bit country and little bit rock n roll" commercials are AWFUL..... such a beating during the football games!! Yep, and did you notice that several trucks have lift kits. Probably crappy spacer lifts but they are modded

Well as embarrassing as it may be, and although I love my F150 dearly, here is a photo of some chrome tow hooks on the front of it. I always thought they were for Chevies to pull me out, but I guess it will have to be a Tundra now. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/01/full-1606-243188-truck.jpg)

From the Detroit News yesterday
But J.D. Power's 2018 dependability rankings, which are more similar to the study Chevy commissioned for its reliability ad in that it looks at 2015 model year vehicles, ranked Chevrolet above Toyota, Honda and Ford.

Has this actually ever happened to anyone? If so, how fast were you going and was it on a freeway or a bad place like Arlington?

As far as price goes. Price a Tundra loaded then go price a Chevy. The Chevy will be 3-5 thousand more. That's a lot of gas.

The one I saw a few weeks ago had some weird disclaimer. It was something along the lines of..... According to a recent Chevy owners poll, Chevy is the most reliable blah blah blah...

I am a GM man. Actually worked for their IT department for years. Still pulling my boat with a '03 pickup. Not one issue. Brake shoes ..... change the oil ..... No problem.
