I know most of you must have trucks so i thought I might ask some of you what trucks are good and what ones suck Etc. Im getting a truck soon. im leaning toward a 05 V8 Ford F-150 All Black with 64,000 miles for $17,000. Im gonna finance and pay monthly payments. The Truck looks Brand New inside and out. Its gonna suck on gas because its a V8 but i dont drive that much anyway. Any Advice or help will greatly be appreciated! Peace

that seems pricey

 

If you're serious about the travel side of riding get a diesel. I just picked up an 04 Dodge 3500 diesel dually for 19,200 with only 33K. I've been averaging around 20mph with city/freeway driving. My last trip to california I was looking at 24mpg average. I do love the look of the 150 much more than my dodge, but I bought with the idea of the motor being the most important thing, not the body style.

 

buy a DODGE

 

Silverado SS

 

if you dont drive that much why have a good car??

I had a nice Grand Cherokee but only drove it like maybe once a week and that was only to the store....sold it and paid $800 for an 84 Cherokee and she has treated me well for a year now...get like 17 mpg with my trailer and both bikes on...even better w/o the trailer....

 

Good job nick now lets have a pull off

Get a Diesel :YEAH i get better mpg in my diesel f250 than i do in my f150 v8 gas

 

let me be the first to say.

GET A TOYOTA!!!!!:YEAH

...tho i gotta say, those silverados look BAD ***!

 

+1 ^^

i paid $600 for my 84 toyota pickup, looks like ****, but gets me to the stunt spot.

...most of the time.

anyway, if you DO decide to buy an older truck, make sure it passes smog before u drop the cash.

 

I luuuuvvvv that truck, theres a amazing body kit for it 2

 

I'm too much of a ***** and don't want to break my truck so I'll let the videos do the talking, haha. Then again I still have 3 years and 67K on the factory warranty....

thats awesome

 

In Sweden, those cars costs like 45000 us dollars.

 

save your dough till next model year. word has it chevy's puttin an option for a diesel in there 1500 next year. and don't ask where i heard that, cuz if i told you i'd have to kill you...lol!...no seriously.

 

I have an 04 F150 Crew Cab 4x4...The only real problems with the new bodystyle F150 is the spark plugs breaking in the head when you attempt to remove them. A poor design by ford that hopefully will be recalled soon. They are 100K plugs but it is suggested you back them out and put some special anti seize in there. And the 4wd system is run by vac and a solenoid that keeps the hubs unlocked when not used. Well moisture will get into the lines and freeze (in cold climate) causing the hubs to get hung up and grind. A new solenoid design is already released and seems to be ok in my truck now. Good luck!

 

nope thats the ford f150 v6 375 lbs tq 525 hp diesel. chevy and dodge are going to be another year or 2 after look it up its all over goggle

 

whats better and more reliable.....A Ford F-150 or a Dodge Ram 1500?

 

you mean i gotta wait another 2 years cause i can't buy a ford(Found On Road Dead).

 

You can already get a 1500 with a duramax just no one knows about it...you might be able to get it in the avalache too.

My friend is a regional gm service rep and knows the build config options. It was in there for the previous models up to 06 at least.


Hopefully I'll be getting a crew cab f250 powerstroke this summer...the s10 is tired plus I can't lift a 2wd and run over squids.

 

i think ford's gas motors are better
Fords are way better than those junk chevy diesels. i do not know 1 person with a chevy that has not had major problems. i like the dodge motor just think they look like poop and the interiors are crap also
