i ask because my parents are letting me choose a car as a gift and I just want to know which car is the best to get
Essays of the F-150 have been written on this forum but I'm going to keep it simple: DO NOT buy a newer F-150 and DEFINITELY buy the Tacoma over it for your own sanity.
Here is the link of fellow member @mod_man 's experience with the Ford F-150

git the tacoma 4x4 if they aint looking, tell dad the resale value is worth the extra 🤔
Get the 2020 4x4 Taco....Wouldn't ever consider any newer F-150
Definitely go with the Toyota Tacoma for longevity. Just do a search in this forum to see the issues. Also the 10-speed AT has had issues and part of a class action lawsuit. See below regarding the Ford F-150:
