New Truck Recommendation

Ol' Times Cigars · 12-20-2010, 01:04 PM

Ive been partial to chevy for years, just love them. I would would suggest either the silverado or the f150, much better on gas and still have plenty of power to pull. A few years ago my dad bought a Titan and I love it. Its quiet, comfortable and has plenty of power, but the mileage is the worst of all the trucks. It gets about 13 city and your lucky to get 17 on the highway, probably more like 16. The ford and chevy are rated around 15 city and 21 highway, that is if gas mileage is a concern to you. If you don't care about mileage the titan is really nice, but then again all trucks are these days compared to my 1992 silverado.

If I had to choose between the two I would go for the Tundra. I am also a big Toyota guy so I may be biased. I just recently bought a Tacoma and would have gone with the Tundra if it weren't for the fact that I didn't need something that big right now so it was hard for me to justify the price difference. The Titan is a nice truck but the interiors just feel cheap to me. Plus I was turned off from the brand when I had my Frontier and had to have a head gasket done at 38,000. Not to mention that every service dept I dealt with was atrocious so I am really turned off to Nissan in general so again I may be biased. I would also hit some of the message boards for both to see what people who own them are saying just to get a feel for common b*tches and moans and problems with each. Also if the decision ends up coming down to appearance keep in mind that the body style of the Titan has not changed since introduced so it may be due for a facelift soon so if you buy one now and they do a remodel next year your new truck will already look like an older truck.
