Get the GMC as they tighten the bolts on better.

What about the bent frame issues on the older dodge trucks? What did dodge do to beef up the frames? Looks like the same frame to me!

What truck would I pick? I already did pick the right truck: Toyota Tacoma
my second choice would be the Chevy Siverado only because it gets the best gas mileage
never never want to own the Toyota Tundra cause the V8 uses a timing belt and any V8 engine is just too powerfull for a timing belt and when it breaks it ruins the engine.(why does the smaller V6 use a chain and the V8 uses a belt?)
The Nissan Titan has the most engine power, its a race car with a truck bed,,, but it gets the WORST gas mileage of 13MPG
I am soooo cool
I picked the 2013 HD dodge. Have you driven one? Me either. Lol. Nobody has.

I was thinking full size trucks, not minis.

Lets begin.

Did you know that the EPA tests each vehicle, not the manufacturer? Idiot.

Have you ever driven a dodge? It's a fine truck and gives the ford a run for their money. It's my #2. Plus the cummins engine is easily the most reliable and proven diesel out there and nobody can argue that.

Did you know your Tacoma is a corolla with a truck bed?

Did you know that the Titan has the least amount of engine power and is one of the slowest trucks out there? My Chevy silverado got 12 mpg on a good day...

Here's my truck after a long, hilly highway trip: If you weren't allowed to buy a Ford ...-image-2298702812.jpg
(10L/100km is about 22 mpg in case you can't comprehend the imperial units)

I sure hope you are trolling. Back on topic, my #2 would be the 13 Ram sport crew cab..no more GM crap.

If we are talking gas motors I would walk. But diesel I would go chevy. The duramax is a pretty solid motor IMO but the cummings is a damn great motor. Better then the duramax. I grew up in a gm family so i lived with them in my life.
