What type of truck do you prefer (or do you buy foreign, i.e. Toyota/Nissan/Honda)? I've actually owned a Nissan (I payed like $250 for it some years ago), as well as Dodge, Chevy and Ford's. Personally I bleed Chevy. :hatsoff:
Ford, Dodge, Chevy, GMC?

I've had nothing but good luck with Ford trucks. I know others haven't, but I'd buy another one in a second.
Who knows. I know F150's are the best selling trucks. Ford Taurus is the best selling car (or was). They are going to start manufacturing them again.
One of my ex coworkers had a couple Ford F150s, and the one he had with a straight 6 had 300K+ miles on it. Any truck you take care of will take care of you, but after buying my Ford (lemon) I've found it almost impossible to buy another. My folks do have a Taurus and it's a beast; they've had very few problems with theirs.
I actually also have a Taurus. It's a 1997, it has 386K on it, and I've only done regular maintenance. Never ever a major repair. It was Ford's dumbest move ever to stop making those cars. They're selling "Taurus" models again, but they aren't the same. I dunno if they are as good.

Didn't I read recently that GM has paid off it's debt to the gumment? and the libs were trying to use the story as some kind of buffer for their ''business friendly" democratic elected officials . .
:1orglaugh ;PBloody - GM product trucks All The Way !
*This is not to say that the others are bad.

Basically the 500 was the "new" version of that car. At least they sure as hell looked like a Taurus, and the specs were pretty similar. My folks have a 3.0 and a 3.8. The 3.8 is fast as hell.

That is a nice feature of the Taurus - they have get-up-and-go like crazy, but when I'm travelling long distance (and when the car was newer), I got nearly 40 miles per gallon. The larger engine is hardly working at 75 mpg.
I'm going to get a new car, and ditch both I have now. I was originally looking at a BMW 300 series, but I'm thinking about a Ford 500/Taurus now.
Now, if we're talking motorcycles, BMW is the only way to go. :thumbsup:
Ford is my first choice with dodge coming in second.
Chevy trucks use to be nice but they are plastic pieces of shit now

They haul ass for sure. I'm not sure what they're pulling but my dual overhead cam (2.4l) in my Chevy gets about the same MPG as their 6 cylinder. Pisses me off to no end but I love my car. Chevy's are a beast.

Why was ford so much financially healthier than the other domestics? Can anyone answer that?
Their sales were down just as much as other car makers, but they made better upper management decisions in the years preceding the recession IMO.
