    I have had two older colorados a few years back, I can tell you those two were ABSOLUTE JUNK. Constant issues, broken exhaust manifolds, brake failures, emissions problems, transmissions, A/C problems, electrical issues. I am glad they are both out of my life. Get a Toyota.

    Toyota, if you can afford it. I'm a tech at a Toyota dealership, pretty common to see vehicles come in with 300K+ on the odometer and still run like a top. Those owners maintain them well. Like a few others, I'm partial to Ford, I own a '98 F150 and an '86 F150. I do like '98 and older GM, no go on Chrysler for me.

    I am not sold on the new Fords with the aluminum bodies yet to new not time tested or MI salt tested an overpriced in my opinion.

    Slick Tacoma. So far I've had several come through my bay, almost all were there because the customers heard "a loud noise coming from the engine area". They use high pressure injectors now. They're loud. It's a new engine design. The thermostat even has a heating element in it. The Tundras have come a long way, I wouldn't mind having a 1794.

    I'm pretty sure most of the parts are made overseas. They just get "assembled" here.
