Another thing is, I have wondered if Toyotas current truck troubles (engines) are because Toyota Trucks don't have much commercial and fleet sales. if there were tens of thousands of Tundras and Tacomas getting flogged by company drivers every day these problems would show up fast. Toyota might...

It might be more telling to that the Ford 3.5 eco boost is in a lot of commercial and fleet trucks and everybody that has used a company truck or been around fleet trucks knows they run hard, for instance the telecom I work at the driver starts the truck and by the time the key returns to the...

I wish GM would go after the cab and chassis market, I work at a telecom and I would say 98% of the trucks that come in here are Fords with the rest Ram (bucket trucks) I have only seen one GM bucket truck and it was a mid 90s Chevrolet (must have been a backup truck) Chevrolet has the 4500...

Or what about auto pedestrian breaking, say bad guy one walks out in front of the vehicle and it stops and bad guy two jumps into the vehicle and car jacks you because the vehicle wont drive.

In theory if a car thief was hanging out in a parking lot, after you get out and start walking into the store run up and open the door if the vehicle still senses the key fob and start it up and drive off? Would the vehicle shut off after it loses contact with the key fob in the owners pocket?

That's a pet peeve of mine about electric vehicles is all the goofy gadgetry they have, why cant they just make a normal electric vehicle without all of the silly stuff? if its because door handles would use up range because or air resistance or something I would rather just get .00035 percent...

Are these those goofy electric pop out door handles?

I would like to see a regular gas Ram with the 3.6 pentastar go up the Davis dam hill too, I don't see how a 3.6 pentastar hooked to a generator with a dead battery will do better than just a traditional engine and transmission. If I am reading the Ram website right the generator only puts out...

It depends if the recall is for a sticker or some infotainment issue or is it because the engine or transmission is going to puke its guts out on the interstate. For instance my 2006 Nissan Frontier has an open recall for the Nissan emblem on the steering wheel "A DETACHED EMBLEM AND/OR RETAINER...

I have been working on my nephews Suzuki King Qaud 300 and I now want to find the people who engineered this thing and kick them right in the n#%$, it has awesome features but the engineers were drunk or stoned. You literally have to take off multiple parts to get to the part you want to remove...

I would put my 1985 Chevy C10 reliability up against any new truck, I could get in it and drive it to New York, I think it would make there and back without much drama even my 2004 Chevy Silverado and my 2006 Nissan Frontier for that matter. The body on the C10 is rock solid with just surface...

I would like to see a real world test of how many things can be disconnected in a new truck to see if it will still run and drive to simulate 20 years from now when much of the electronic stuff will be non functional because its broken or bricked because the manufacturer doesn't support the...

Silly

I finally seen some pics of the Tacoma brake line recall and thats just bone headed that Toyota routed the brake hoses like that.

I would like to see what the actual problem is, for a brake line to only last a year or two in a new truck is bad engineering, I have had old trucks that have never had to have brake lines and they were always covered in logging/mining road dirt.

I wonder how the GM Turbo Max is doing? Other than its missing two cylinders to make it a proper inline six.

The transmission is a one year only because of some parts inside of the transmission and some other things, I have only hear of them called canopies on the Oregon coast.

Don't, tell who ever needs to jumped to call AAA, I ain't taking a chance on screwing up my electrical system on my $70,000 truck incase something goes wrong.

I do all of my own maintenance, well except when I had a clutch put in my 2004 Silverado as was to lazy.

Another Another thing. If I had my way there would be no tarrifs and all auto import laws would be removed, it would be informational only, so basically NHTSA and EPA would be a ratings service with no ability to outlaw or prevent importing any vehicle. Ratings would be.. A B C D ☠️
