[JERSEY BOB]

Hey Jersey Bob, theres a Ford dealer in Washington. Buy an AMERICAN BIG BOY truck.[up]

We both got great deals at PRESTIGE TOYOTA in RAMSEY NJ. Easy deals, didn't take long to make the deals. My truck and his are the same, except for mine came already installed items like: step rails, LO Jack, bug shield, heavy duty skid plate, and a few other items. I'm getting 20/22 hwy

He was looking into the FRONTIER, but it doesn't come with the 4 door and long bed, only the short bed

 

[SJMark]

Thats true BHC, but short bed is all i need. The Tacomas are great trucks, i test drove a few. The Nissan dealer just cut me a better deal. There both great trucks.

Buy American.
I use to just buy toyotas cars and trucks. I owned 3 different cars and 4 different trucks. The last truck that I bought new went through 2 trannies within 140,000 miles plus right after I bought the truck the bed started rusting 2 months later because the paint that was laid down inside the bed was not done properly. Toyota painted it but after that I jumped ship and moved over to Ford and I am more than happy with their products plus when I lay down my hard earned money I know it will stay here in the states where it should be.
Just my 2 cents, Jeff

 

[SJMark]

wether you know it or not these trucks are mostly american made. Granted the enginering is mostly Japanese, but most of the parts and labor is done here.

 

[Dragthor]

sjmark - yup. Its cheaper for Toyotoa to assemble and sell the trucks here in American compared to assembling them in Japan and shipping them.

Although... Toyotoa could assemble in Mexico... then sell here. [down]

My best friend's father has a CHEVY TAHOE, some parts are made here in AMERICA, some in CANADA, other parts in MEXICO, my TOYOTA was built here by AMERICANS, almost all the PARTS are AMERICAN made, my TOYOTA will hold its value longer, and will last longer. I use to by AMERICAN trucks, until I got a leamon CHEVY, and while they tried to repair it they gave me a car with 140,000 miles, ripped seats, over flow ashtray, CHEVY themselves told at the time, they wouldn't give me my money back, I met all the qualifications of the NJ leamon law at the time, 3 major problems that will cause saftly or value of the truck, I said see you in court, they said ok no problem, guess what I WON......I brought a FORD during the summer much better truck then CHEVY, but it loved the gas, went back to TOYOTA

 

[jyoung]

Not trying to ruffle any feathers here.
I know that Toyota's are built here but bottom line is that after they pay the American wages guess where the rest of the money goes. That's right it goes back to Japan for future growth of their country not yours and believe me with the money that they save on shipping and import taxes they are making loads of cash. The move to open car manufacturing plants here was because we put heavy import taxes on vehicles coming in. They did not do this for the growth of the USA.
Ford and Chevy make great mid sized trucks that don't use anymore gas than a Toyota or Nissan and they last just as long. And the V8 Tundra is really no different than the F150 or a 1500 sierra or a 1500 Dodge maybe just a little bit smaller.
It is not like the 80's when your American vehicle did not last as long as your loan did.
My point is with all that is going on in this country maybe we should give back to our own and buy American.
