Royale with Cheese Posted October 4, 2018 Author Share Posted October 4, 2018 So with mileage, I don't worry about much from a Toyota. I would feel comfortable with something in the 75,000 mile range. What about the Colorado? What do you guys think a comfortable cutoff would be? Nothing more than 45,000? Unless they are as reliable as a Toyota where I don't have to worry about it as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I have 2 Chevy trucks 83 custom deluxe. 2nd motor, a 350 in it. Damn good truck. Can't bust it. 94 s10 manual tranny that is just now starting to need a new clutch. That thing was built solid Daily driver is an 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee and I've put more money in that in the last 4 years than I have the other 2 combined over the last 10. The workhorse is just not worth bringing into the conversation Maybe only @CountryCletus and his pretty boy big boy truck can compete ??♂️ The little fellas like @mrags, @Flutie Flakes @mead107 @BringBackFergy won't feel adequate. 10 minutes ago, RaoulDuke79 said: You wanna go on a date?

I’ll give you and Cletus the credit for hauling/towing/cruising. But you guys don’t hold a candle to our off road capability. Your F350 can sure haul a ton of meat for the Monday Night Game tho. So I’ll concede to your greatness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'd just hop in that, probably blow you away on the roads, too. That damn thing does 67 on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually keep it under 100 but sometimes it’s tough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to give more info, I'll have a child seat in the back for me 3 year old. After I sell my house, I'll be living in an apartment roughly 15 months until I buy a new house. I don't need to haul anything big, it's going to be landscaping stuff like bails of pine straw, stone, mulch etc.... You should get the Honda Ridgeline. Arguably most reliable, best interior, best ride, best gas mileage, and suits your every need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad just got a loaded Sierra. That backup camera. ❤️❤️❤️ You don’t even drive your truck...you let a chick drive your truck (to and from games). Let her chime in on what truck she likes.

My wife has a long commute so she drives a Corolla for the mileage, but can't do it when it snows so she either takes my truck or I drive her to work. I've been happy with the Toyotas. I'm not sure I'd go with them for a full size truck, but I cant fit a full size in my garage anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 (edited) All Toyotas now come standard with back up camera, so I am told. Not sure about GM. Also came with Navi, which I always like built in. Guilty pleasure. I know, they jack up the price, but nice having Navi built in. The styling on Tacoma and Colorado are almost identical. Wasn't sure if it was a Toy-Let collaboration, which I don't think so. But almost identical looking trucks, when it comes to cab. ??

apuszczalowski Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I think in Canada it went into law that all new vehicles have backup cameras standard. They are nice but they ruin you. I use mine with the sensors that beep if I get close, but if I drive one without I find myself forgetting I dont have it. As for the Nav, a buddy of mine bought a full size Chevy and they were looking for an extra $800-1000 for it, which is basically installing a chip/module or activating something in the screen. He found that he could use his android smartphone and Google maps on his dash screen for nav and it's more up to date and better then what GM gives you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previous wife's car had park assist, new one just cam. Same with truck, just camera, no alarms. I am trying to port my phone in the BMW. But you still have to by a module unit & it's under a grand.
