Auto windows that would stop working and would all of a sudden just fall down in the door frame when you hit a bump. Windshield wipers that keep freezing up, they would replace the motors, three times, they knew they had a problem but no recall.

actuly this happend in my FORD mustang whinshieds wipers froze and i could not see had to pull over and the pasenger winder fell down in to the door and cracked and i could not shut the door right so i had it fixed but it took about a month for parts.
 
you know i mostly like the silvirado mostly because the truck fists a cowboy best i even had bull horns on the hood but willy right it all depends on your needs i went to the yukon xl because my neads changed and needed three rows of seats i said put them in the bed but somthing called the "law" soped me but thats a different story. but it just depends on your needs and wants but.....

CHEVY STILL RULES
 
Want a trouble free tow rig?? The new 07 Toyota Tundra has a 10,000 lb. tow capacity, the most of any 1/2 ton truck.
 
I have to agree with Willy also, there are problems with all makes and models. I have been lucky so far as to not have too many problems yet.

Racer has me a little confused though, he started out with, he likes Fords, but by the end he had beaten them into the ground.

I have had Fords, Chevys and Dodges and like things about all of them.
 
GM/ Chevy...when ya turn the wipers to "OFF", they wipe again B4 they stop...how is it the engineers at GM know better when to stop my wiper-blades than I do??
 
Sorry guys, I am not allowed to chime in,

DANA has there hands in all these products and there things I could tell about all.

I personally have had input into F-150, Vette, Tundra, Tacoma, and even though we didn't get the job,
Nissan Titan (design changes).
 
If you want a truck that is a truck, buy one of these:

and yes, DANA makes the frame rails.
 
my 73 comando has dana 44 front, 60 rear. love 'em. wouldn't run anything else. it also has an international 304 small block. dont wanna hurt anyones feelings, but that is the best truck motor ever made. as much as it hurts to say this, leaps and bounds above the chevy 350. for towing, hauling, and offroad anyway.
 
Well Ive been in this debate before, but overall I think if you go buy a NEW Ford, GMC (not chebbie), or Dodge, you are getting a solid vehicle.

The Titans are nice too...very nice...dont like the Tundras as much, a buddy of mine has one and to me they are too cushie...like chevy.

I am really enjoying my V8 4x4 Dakota though...just painted her silver last weekend...much better now. 8)


As for the new Vette...SWEET MAN!!

My uncle has an 2006 that I took my wife for a ride in last year and we both fell in love. That is a fine ride and fast aint even the word.  8)

We were doing 130 before I even thought about it good and I knew then and there we had to turn around and go back b4 I ended up in jail. ::)

I cant IMAGINE the Z06...that would be downright dangerous. :o


Sweet car FB...the Vette has always been my favorite.  ;)
 
racer lol personally i think the 304 and it's big brother 345 are junk. they didn't run good new lol. They were found in Scouts, they are hard to find parts for too. I've had a few Scouts nice truck if you put a Chevy small block in them lol.

The one truck i want for fishing hunting and driving all in one is a WWII DUKW
