re: Best trucks for the money, measured in cost per 10k miles of lifespan

Next, and this is a surprise, is the Toyota Tundra. Why a surprise? Because it isn’t first. Toyota has long claimed to be the most-reliable truck with the best resale value. It was literally edged out of first place by just $5. That $5 difference is going to be a talking point around Toyota’s offices this week.
A $5/year diff is marginal and probably could be tweaked in the opposite way easily by tweaking the methodology of the study. The study is by "Iseecars.com", not NHTSA or LSU.
Also I'm curious what factors tilt the life spans. Is there some major events such as crashes/totals? For example, birds have an average life of 3 years. Very few birds live three years, though, because half are eaten by snakes and rodents before 6 months, and the other half live past 5-6 years.
