I'm torn on which new car to buy.. I know I know, I like being the first one to own a car so I pay for it.
I'm deciding between a 2022 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 access cab or a 2022 Ford F-150 Regular cab XLT 4x4 with the N/A 5.0 and the 3.73 locker (fully loaded).
I get the difference between motor capabilities, cab size etc but I want to know what you think will hold up better 10 years down the road. Michigan made F-150 or the Mexico made Tacoma?
The Tacoma Msrp is $40k + a $1k market adjustment + tax and fees loking around $47k
The F-150 MSRP is $48.5k but they are going to sell to me for $45k + tax and licensing $50k
Tacoma all day long...not even close
I've got my 4x4 Taco coming at the end of March
Congrats!!!
Congrats on your new vehicle! Hope you are satisfied once you received it.
Toyota.
Most everything new made by Ford is junk these days.
I was under the impression that the F150 is the best selling truck. Ford must be doing something right with that truck.
@theeel yes they're doing marketing right, because most people believe the lie that you just repeated.
Popularity does not equate to quality.
The F150 is not the best selling truck. That lie has been perpetrated on the public for years. Here is a heads up, the Kia is NOT the most reliable car in America, either, no matter what KBB, Edmunds or Consumer Reports says.
I would imagine after all these years of popularity that if the truck wasn't of high quality the word would be out and sales would plummet.
Didn’t stop Chrysler from selling a ton of vehicles..
Read the statement you just made. There is no logic in it at all. "I would imagine", "all these years", "if". The "word" you hear is what Ford pays millions of dollars for you to hear. It's called Propaganda.
most people don't buy based on quality
Toyota Tacoma for sure. And it's been asked here before too, there is nothing long with a Tacoma made in Mexico; what's important is it's toyota quality.
Do you need a full size truck?
They are both two trucks in different classes. Out of the two, I would go with Toyota no questions asked.
