HTHM Posted July 11, 2012 Report Posted July 11, 2012 My Ford E 150 lasted me till 352,000 sold it for $6000 and it is still going strong at 423,000
danc Posted July 11, 2012 Report Posted July 11, 2012 When your ready head down the West Herr Toyota and get yourself a nice TUNDRA......this is 100% the truth.....mine is now 5 years and 1 month old....never had to go back to the dealer except for a tire sensor calibration after FIRESTONE broke it while putting on new tires......I have had Fords, Chevy's and GMC trucks.......NOTHING comes close to the quality of this Toyota Tundra.... My 96 F-150 has never been back to the dealership. Neither has my 01 60 HP Merc. Both are still going strong. Maybe I'm missing something here?
blaque Posted July 11, 2012 Report Posted July 11, 2012 I gotta say.....I've owned two f150's before this one and I often boasted the same thing. I drove them off the lot, and they never saw the dealership until I traded in. This ones been a bear. I've looked at the tundra a couple times and it's a nice vehicle. Hasn't won me over I guess

Live2fish85 Posted July 13, 2012 Report Posted July 13, 2012 My old man had a 02 CRV had 493 000km. All that was needed was breaks and oil changes. I understand supporting the economy but I would rather support my wallet. Don't over look imports.
Raf Posted July 13, 2012 Report Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) I understand supporting the economy but I would rather support my wallet. Don't over look imports. old CRV was built in the US. 2012+ CRVs are built in Ontario (Alliston) as far as I know. The metal used to build is likely stamped in Ontario (Barrie) too. You're likely helping an OFNer by buying one. Edited July 13, 2012 by Raf
Live2fish85 Posted July 13, 2012 Report Posted July 13, 2012 I know, many other people still don't agree with it though lol. If you work for them to you are less likely to lose your job lol. They aren't union so do the job right and you got a job, if not goodbye. Union work half assed and you still got the job.
