Hunting trucks ford 150, dodge ram or???

As with a couple of previous posters - I am a big Toyota fan. I have a 2010 tacoma and love it. I assume the larger Tundra is equally great. Tacoma's are very tight drivers. Haul like a dream. Many truck buyers stick with the Big 3. Read consumer reports.
When you watch TV shows with trucks around the world in nasty places, they are most likely Toyotas. When you watch an african safari on TV they are not driving ford, chev or dodges. They are most likely driving toyotas. I saw a show with trucks hauling supplies in remote areas of Antartica. They weren't driving the Big 3, they were driving toyotas. They are expensive, but you get what you pay for.

Now I live on a 200 acres farm and now it works almost every day. I've been in the bush, through fields and swamps with it, with the 5.7 hemi I'm never worried about getting stuck. It's also pulled a stalled tractor loaded with a trailer full of maple through a 60' mud bog and it never looked back. Oh and I get 600km for $80 right now driving rual and highway.

If you're serious about buying a truck and want a Ford, let me know and I can sweeten the deal with a discount over and above all current incentives. I work for Ford of Canada and would be willing to help you out.

I would take Jim up on the deal!!! Forget the dodge.

Anyone drive by a Ford Dealership and see the 2015 F-1Tundras er F-150's? I wonder if they have to pay Toyota royalties on that body :) glad we went with the 14.

They sure do look a bunch different. I think a levelling kit and nice set of boots will make them more appealing. The Atlas concept sure looks sharp. Yes perhaps Toyota may have lended a hand in that design. But we shouldn't forget that Toyotas 5.7 powerplant was aided in design by mopar.
