They're not bad trucks, but I'm not a big fan of trucks as it is. Always been more of a fan of STI's and Evo's. Those types of cars are just the coolest thing to me.

That's because your in a different age bracket then us. When I was your age I wasn't into trucks more cars as well. However I can fit things in my car you can't fit in your evo or STI as well....and even more so with a truck.

True, however I despise the 4 door STI's (Should've mentioned that) I am in love with the 5 door though. Dunno why.

I don't know about their trucks but I do own a Ford Fiesta and I'm satisfied with it. For such a small car it still manages to run great with very little fuel usage. And the parts for it are a lot cheaper than I used to pay for my Golf 4 4x4 1.9l 150bhp diesel. So props to Ford for this amazing small car. :)

I love my Silverado, been helping my friend with his Ford lately and it's been nice. I keep a tow strap with me at all times specifically for Dodge trucks (they're hardly worth pulling out though)

When I was a kid the forestry company in town had 10 year old Ford trucks. They bought an entire fleet of Chevy trucks to replace them.

Within 6 months, all the Chevy's had cracked frames. They were boasting the same stuff they do today.

They went back to using the 10+ year old Fords.

Therefore, I have no faith in Chevy trucks.

 

One could even blame the extra torsion to the reason they cracked.

Going to need more info on that one before taking it into consideration. Exact models and years. Workload differences

I don't get why people buy pickups to carry stuff.

Wouldn't this be more practical?

I've had both pick up trucks and vans. And i'll have to say that i prefer trucks

And with a van you are a bit limited when it comes to working in remote locations with bad roads

 

On topic. Give me a 55 Ford F100 and i'll happily drive a ford. Otherwise im not a fan of most modern cars

Before I had a truck I used to see the bumper stickers on trucks that read "I Love My Truck!!" and I thought .... jeez what morons....

 

Now, after having my F150 for a few years.....I understand!!!

 

 

I LOVE MY TRUCK!!!!
