Whats the best truck on market today. I'm talking bad ass heavy duty passenger work truck. Payload and towing capacity is paramount as well as comfortability Most likely looking for a diesel.
please discuss

Hummers....all guyz like them. ;)

Hummers absolutey suck as far as quality. H1's were quality but H2's and H3's are complete and utter shit. I drive a Toyota FJ with a 6" lift on 35's. It would blow a hummer out of the water as far as offroad capability. No offense to you hummer owners. But they are all looks.
As far as a good truck any Ford 1/2 ton is a beast of a truck for towing. The new Dodges are nice as well.
-
Silverado, Ram, Tundra, and F-series are all pretty equal in my opinion. Some are better than others in certain areas and vice versa. As far as looks, I like the Ram the best.
-
Ford f150 is probably the cheapest pound per pound vehicle on the market. A lot of people like them. Chevrolet Silverados are nice too I think they have the best fuel economy. A Hummer is good too as long as you don't have to haul stuff often, they are also great for pissing off liberals.

I got one that I really like.
Can someone start a getbiggers cars and trucks thread
in a couple of days (I am going on a trip to another country for a few days)
and lets see some pics.
To see Mcmannus car would be fun.

Why ???

I will honor you with a reply, I dont read you posts most of the time.
I know you like to be insulted but I give you a normal reply instead.
If you ever had Chaufs, a chef in the kitchen or just too much staff
around you would know that it is annoying.
I cant stand having too many of them around me.
Even a:" how are you today sir?
Or good afternoon sir? Going Shopping again sir?" can be uncomfortable to hear.
A limo gets stuck in the mud due to flooded roads here way too often, I need a 4WD."

Silverado !

So I did some research the ford f150 best selling truck for 31 years now and decent fuel economy
the silverrado has overrated fuel economy and far less features and towing capcity than the ford
dodge is a cruel joke on consumers
Now these are all based on gas models.
Upping the scale to the superduty line of trucks IE ford f250/350/450/
and the GM version with the 1500/2500/3500
the dodge is also available in three different load carrying capacity's
Now through my research it is apparent that the new 6.4 twin turbo powerstroke engine offered int he superduty series of trucks is far Superior to any other diesel engine of today
The duramax is a great engine however the Allison transmission is not up to par and the duramax have a reputation of over heating during extensive workdays.
the dodge is a great truck and the cummins line of engine are very durable however horribly under powered
If anyone has one of these vehicles please give us your input.
I'm looking to buy a new truck this week. It will be a diesel model and most likely the new ford

umm thats a H2

Thundra 5.7 V8...... all you will ever need
-
Thundra 5.7 V8...... all you will ever need
And the advantage of the Tundra is that you don't have wonder whether or not the company that makes it will be around a few years from now.
-
Thundra 5.7 V8...... all you will ever need
I need real towing capacity the tundra has an 8800lb tow rating '
and the ford f450 has 24500lb tow rating
Also like I said I need diesel
also i only buy American. I'm trying to keep my people working not raise the economy for Asians
-

Do you really think the top three are broke. its all a ploy to get free money from the government. And coincidently this happens weeks before we get a new president game well played by the American auto makers

You can look at GM's financial statements and see that they are nearly "broke". Ford is in a little bit better shape but still not doing well by any means. With Chrysler you just have to take their word for it because they are owned by Cerebrus. But Chrysler was in poor financial condition before they went the private equity route...so you know its gotta be even worse now with the sharp drop in auto sales and freezing up of auto loans.

Ford F150

Wow, if that Hummer could talk! ;) I traded it in with 75,000 miles.

MMM,
I used to drive H1's in the Army & for the record I never had a problem with my H2. So what if it's all for looks? Hey, no offense taken. Check out this website www.fuH2.com (http://www.fuH2.com) Ppl really have some serious issues.......

lol so you working on any TV stuff lately
what do you think about the latest gladiators show
Maybe next month. I met a guy who is producing some movies in February. We'll see what happens. Hey, I could always do the "reality show" thing.
In ref to Gladiators, NBC decided to pick all new people. Oh well, it is what it is. :)

yeah it was better before.
you should go on that reality show where they all live in one house I would be glued to the TV waiting to see you kick some ass
-
Why not?
Because for the same money you could get a quality car, like an Audi TT mk2 :)
That is of course if you bought 350Z as a new...
-
Hummers aren't trucks...they are for show (at least the majority of the time); trucks serve a practical purpose. Hope this helps.
-
F-350 Dually diesel is a real work truck - but if you go single rear wheel then make sure to get an 8 ft bed. These guys with diesels and 5-6 ft beds make me laugh.
-
umm thats a H2
I know that.
I was saying the rims were like the ones on Ronnies H1.
-
yeah it was better before.

For the record, we just sold our ZO6. Now, that was a bad a** car.

lol, yep, black is the absolute worst to keep clean.
I'm ridiculously obsessive about keeping my car clean.....i don't think i could ever own a black car.
It's a shame though cause a clean black car/truck always looks good.

I just found a 2009 ford f450 king ranch loaded to the tits. I'm going to make a deal tomorrow. Its black with gold bottom which I guess is the paint scheme for the king ranch they are all two tone. I looked at the Harley too but the king ranch has a much more comfortable interior.
guess ill have to get the bottom painted black too

Have had a 06 Silverado crew cab, a 04 F-150 crew cab and a 03 Tacoma full size. I must say that i enjoyed driving the Silverado more than the others. All around i just enjoyed driving it much more than the others. This is strange seeing as how i really am not much of a chevy guy. Just my .02 cents.

Damn, that's high dollar.
I got a 2000 F250 4X4 with the 7.3 powerstroke and it does a fantastic job, I have heard alot of complaints from owners of the newer Ford 3/4 ton diesels that the current motor just can't compare to the 7.3.
Bubba the love sponge was always talking shit about his '08 f350 on the radio. Said the motor just didn't have the balls that his former super duties did.

The 6.4 makes alot more torque and horsepower than the 7.3. also the tuning available for the new trucks is sick. bolt on exhaust and a tuner and you nearly double your power 1200 lbs of torque and 550rwhp its amazing what these new 6.4 can lay down. I just cut a check for the truck so it'll b e home later today. they have to plate it for me and install the bed liner.

Hummer H3T serves practical purpose + has the looks

didnt read the rest of the post after this but the twin turbo 6.4 is the biggest peice of garbage as far as Diesels go. Cummins new engine is pretty good and the duramax is a good truck. If I were buying I would go with the duramax with the allison tranny. will pull what ever you need decent mileage and the allison tranny is unbeatable in a 3500 dually.
I have driven all of them my father in law has an 06 3500 chevy with drw, I would personally get that or the dodge.

Allison does put out the best transmission, but I still swear by the 7.3 powerstroke for towing capability, I just don't know if it's an option or not on the current models.
Ford owned the market as far as 3/4 ton 4-door looks are concerned, for the most part of this decade, but I think the new Chevys look badass.

biggest mistake ever going away from the 7.3 6.4 sucks I dont understand why its so bad, also terrible gas mileage from what I have heard

the gmc cant pill the weight of the f450 and the 6.4 makes tonnes more torque than the 7.3 the dodge or the duramaxi pad the allioson tranny is limited to around 800lbs of torque so that doesnt help when trying to mod the motor The kit i just orderd for my truck make 1200lbs of torque and 550 rwhp all on the stock components. the 6.4 is the next legend from ford I couldnt be happier

why would you need over 800lbft? we tow everything horse trailers, boats, 40ft trailers full of hay, I live in the mountains and never had a problem with anything? I cant see that much torque being really use full for everyday use. what are you towing that requires that much torque. by the way 660 torque factory for Chevy vs. 650 factory for ford. I used to like ford until I rode in and drove the 3500 no contest imo. btw very nice truck you got there seriously
-

It's got to be around a $40,000 dollar pick up truck, at least.

the extra power makes the workday alot better fun factor anyway. and the power rating on the duramax is 625lb and on a dyno ive seen a dozen maxis make less than 500 rwtq and the 6.4 make 650 to the rear wheels so ford has underated this motor. I love the new gms but cant stand the interiors and we have 15 trucks in our fleet and they are all fords
