The worst of the used trucks

They make many comments that show they really dont know what they're talking about or have mixed things up so badly it's laughable.
I think it's a big FAIL.

That's got to be one of the worst reviews I've ever read. Based on what's written, every truck is junk. Avoid the Tacoma because a few radios were reported to turn off? Avoid the Tundra because it had 12 recalls over 6 model years? My Ram had 7 last year alone! They group the Tundra from MY 2005-2008. It's not even the same truck as they were completely new in '07, didn't share anything.

Worthless.

Avoid the 2007 Tundra? Best truck I ever owned, sold it at 106,000 for $16,500 (high book). Much of that mileage towing.

Red herrings they talk about: the air induction pump (warranty extended to 200,000 miles) and "piston slap" which some had when cold but did not seem to affect anything. Never experienced that myself. Fading paint? Not on mine and it was never garaged. Pretty much bullet-proof truck IMO

I have to agree with the Ram part. I owned a 2002 Ram 1500 and it was one problem after another. The dash turned to dust, rear end failed, it ate front hubs, sludge, radiator leaked and failed, cooling hoses blew, sensors failed, and the list goes on. I bought an 08 and it's given me no problems, so they got it all figured out eventually. From that point on I said I'll just stay away from the first model year.

" Some owners report" sheesh


click bait

clueless come to mind

And there will be more and more making the list as their complexity goes up...
more stuff to go wrong...

More so with poor maintenance (timing schedule vs usage, quality of the mechanic,
quality of materials, etc)

Leasing (long term renting) has so many neglect everything...as it is a rental
so why bother...

Why seriously noodling my next TV after the Sub dies...something pre-tech
and pre-smog or lesser smog controls so can do whatever want to do

Keep the body & VIN for smog...then newer junk yard +9K GVWR frame & axles, but
now can stuff in a 'built' carb'd gasser with little to no smog requirements
Maybe a newer port injected big block, but not worry about smog...

Sure, the new vehicles are way more comfortable, but that metric is only on
my "nice to have" list...

Many past careers in design and taught both in college and mentors: KISS your
designs Ben...and live by that most times...and know empirically how stuff
breaks down when overly complex...plus the level of tech to fix'm goes way up...
