And in the front for reliability and resale.


meh. Ford has never let me down and resale doesn't affect me.

I've never been in one, does it ride like a truck or a car? I prefer a silky smooth ride and don't care about towing anything.



Supposedly the TRX has eight “driving modes” and one of them makes it ride like a 1970’s Eldorado over rough terrain. I’d have to admit that this is a major selling point for me being a rural Hunt County resident.

Starting at $71,790...is a stop for me.

Then buy a Ridgeline. My Tundra rides fine but not after a silky smooth ride.

They also make vehicles that last and hold resale value (not important for you or me, but it matters). Most innovative vehicles? No, but they last.

Had a '96 Tacoma that was a beast, no bells and whistles, never did get stuck no matter how hard I tried, solid long lasting vehicles imo

It’s the Dodge formula they have used for many years. Take a huge honking engine and stick it inside a questionable quality car or truck and sell it as a high performance vehicle. Super B, R/T, SRT truck, etc...the problem is, the engine is still running great and the body and minor mechanicals fall apart.

I had one too with 4 WD. Over 300 Thousand miles with only routine maintenance. Then it broke my heart by blowing a head gasket. I let the mechanic have it for $500 rather than spend 5k to get it fix. I can sure kick myself in the A## for not spending the money and getting a new motor. Got me a Tundra now and hate that beast when trying to fit into those itty bitty parking spaces at Academy. cry
