Hi Scotty,

I was wondering if you are able to provide a little more insight into why certain brands of vehicles, specifically trucks, are superior/inferior. I know you say how Dodge is the worst followed by Chevy then Ford and Toyota at the top and in your videos give exmaples of a well running/poor running car to back this up. However, I know several people who have almost 200k Ram's and have had very few issues as well as people with Fords who go to the mechanic quite often. I know Toyota is already superior because of quality as a whole so that is not really part of the question. What makes the Dodge trucks and Chevy trucks more inferior? As well as the brands a whole. Each car will always have certain vehicles that don't last long just like every car will have vehicles that do. There's Dodge's that can out last a Toyota and vice versa. In your videos you show broken down Dodge trucks for example, and obviously as a mechanic you will see a vehicle in bad shape as opposed to one in good shape. I know the websites like JD power and all those aren't the most reliable source but they generally put Chevy Ford and Dodge/Ram all within the same ballpark of each other. 

Anyway to summarize, what is the differences between these different car/truck brands and what makes them bad despite people having fairly good reliability with all of them? All of them have exceptions that break down at 100k and all of them have trucks that make it to 250k+ from what I have seen. Is it just a matter of the frequency of the "dud" vehicles or is it something more. I would have guessed that if they were not reliable they would not continue to sell but all still have relatively high sales.

Thank you for the help
