that's what they look like too


Looks and appearance are the widest variables among consumers in vehicle choice if you know anything about selling them. One man's Prom date is another's live in Mother In Law. It all balances out in the end.


that would make the Jeep Gladiator the fat chick you take home from the bar @ 2am

Chevy and Toyota fall into the same boat of being great in the 2000s and early 2010s but failing to evolve with the times in terms of providing trucks that get good gas mileage and good towing performance, at a reasonable price. Chevy had the 6.2L that could tow a ton and got mid-20s mpg, but you could only get it in the high country for awhile, which was criminal. Toyota just thinks that if you are buying a truck, you don't care about gas mileage. And for the folks who feel that way, they're a good option. But lots of us use a truck as a truck sometimes and a commuter vehicle other times and would like it to function well for both, and Toyota just doesn't fit that mold.

I would rather spend my money on gas than repairs.

Yep.

And they really don't like that, either.

I prefer to spend my money on neither

Turned 400,000 miles on my Chevy today. Guess I'll keep driving it until Chevy makes a good looking truck again.

Since 2000 90% of all Fords made are still on the road!! The other 10% actually made it home.

I got a ram ecodiesel in 2017. It'll definitely be the next truck I buy. Hard to beat 28+ mpg in a 4x4.
