I am looking for service experience with Ford F150, 250 and Toyota Tundra 4x4s. Probably 5.4L engine in the Fords and 5.7L in the Tundra. I am in the market and trying to get the +/- and things to look out for. Common stuff to expect?
I will be using it for daily driver, electrical contracting (light hauling), a little offroad 4x4, and perhaps to tow the race car (6) trips a year for 300mi/trip, say 7k pounds. Let me know your opinions and experience. Matt |

The Tundra is a POS. I know two people that have had them and both suffered a variety of problems, from computers, to odd noises, to service lights that didn't mean anything, and my one buddy had one of the ones that suffered cam failure.
The F150/250 on the other hand, it is a Ford truck. The one thing they do well. They last forever and you can get service or mod parts anyplace. -Tim |
