Oil change is 12 qt's

Fuel filter, change every 30K, same with air filter.

How much oil those little wind up gas engines hold?

I bought the 2.7 last year and I love how much power it has. I don't tow that often, and when I do(Small Utility trailer) it has plenty of boost.

In Sport mode,it will out run any stock truck of any make.

Speaking of bullshite.

Diesel truck, avg, 22 mpg


Oh look, way more bullshite.

Resale value.


Resale value is higher because the diesel costs more. Much more than the $5k you claim. More like $7500.

Oh, some a gas engine holds 7.9 qts of oil to my 12 qts. Changes at every 5K to 7K were I change mine at 7.5K, but can go to 10K if need be.

So, diesels are more expenses then gas upkeep. SURRRRRE.

Look at KBB resale price guild on used trucks. Match them with gas and then diesel. You will see a 5L Plus in price for the diesel.

So, you still full of it.

New F150s oil interval is 10k miles going off the on board computer. So fail for you still.

I covered that already. They cost more when new, so of course they cost more used. That means nothing.

You really should just stop trying. You're failing worse than the other guy.

So is the F-150 the best with regards to reliability,


Tundra would be #1 for reliability, but I think an F150 if taken care of should last as well.

Yes it does. When one buys a diesel up front, they get just about all the extra money back when the sell.

What part of that you don't understand?

Do you have a learning disability or something?

You can't say resale is better for the diesel because you get the extra money you paid upfront back later. That's called a net of zero.

And the resident Koolaid sipper is here too. Can you link me to the Tundra topping reliability? Because so far I've found GM topping dependability for 2015 by JD Power. Do you have something to refute that?

The TRD Pro 4Runner is a sweet ride, but one thing I'd mention about it that may change your preference for the Pro over the Trail Premium model is KDSS. The Pro doesn't have KDSS, which makes a world of difference for on-road driving manners. KDSS is the least gimmicky, gimmicky-sounding system ever made. It takes a tall, narrow, truck-framed vehicle that otherwise would lean and bounce like crazy and makes it handle flat and smooth as a dream. Drive both, take them through some hard corners and note the difference.

KDSS isn't available in the Gulf State toyota region if i recall correctly. Not 100% on that though. Wife has a 4WD limited, underpowered but otherwise great.

If true, that's a shame. It makes a very noticeable difference.
