My buddy bought a Tacoma last march and all he talked about was how it’s so much more reliable than my wrangler JL supposedly. It lasted him about five months of commuting. He never towed a thing and never wheeled it yet the first three gears melted together on a flat road going 40. Costed him $5k to find someone to replace his transmission. The interior looks like the inside of an old economy jet. And the wind noise is unbearable the windows whistle and the engine is gutless. But he loves the thing because it’s a Toyota 🤷♂️ I’ll never understand it.

The 3rd gen Taco is supposed to be revved high for all its power. It’s a NA v6 tuned for economy but still able to pull 6800 lb. People don’t understand that it is perfectly happy in a high RPM range. And the reliability is real, not perceived. That Toyota resale value isn’t based on features or tech; its based on the fact that their trucks can go extremely high miles on only basic maintenance.

@@anoop4243 Retaining more value after the warranty is up has nothing to do with investments. It just means that Toyota spends far less money fixing their customers’ vehicles, which translates into lower priced warranties and higher vehicle value retention afterward because there’s a whole lot more life left after the warranty is up. To me, THAT is better performing. Who cares if you have the best numbers on paper if you have to go back to the dealer all the time for recalls and problems? Having said that, everything from everyone has kind of sucked the last couple of years. I am not interested in any new vehicle for the next 5 years at least. By then, my Tundra will only have 100k miles on it, which is barely even broken in.

I don't care if the other car is 5% more reliable, because it lacks many important features or is dull to drive. I keep my cars for ~ 10 yrs when I upgrade to a newer better vehicle. At the end of the day I shouldn't feel bored when I drive from A to B, and Ford's are pretty good at ensuring that it doesn't happen. Also I maintain my cars well, and I've had zero issues with my Ford's.
