Should I get a 2006 Ford F-150 XLT or 2006 Chevy Silverado Z71?
Which truck would be better… I need a tough truck to haul around kids (both are 4-door), a little off-road driving around the farm and fishing, pulling a 4k to 5k trailer. Which engine is better, Fords 5.4L or Chevys 5.3L? Is one transmission better than the other? Which will give me the least or most problems? All pros and cons appreciated, thank you!
Hi the issue is not the type of trucks as both are ideal. It is the age of both of them. If you want reliable then you need much newer trucks like 4-5 years old not in this case
11 years old as they become less reliable over 7 years old.
There's really not that much difference between Chevy and Ford. Both the vehicles you are looking at are USED trucks, and NOBODY can tell you which USED truck is a better buy. Mostly it comes down to personal preference. Buy the one that YOU like better.
Defiantly get a Chevy, i myself drive a Silverado and so do my 2 neighbors, any time they see a ford they laugh and say it was a waste of their $$, an do you wanna drive a vehicle with so many acronyms related to it like Ford does Found on Roadside dead, For only retarded drivers and so many more?
- What truck should I get? SS silverado, Ram Rt, or ford lighting? I want a truck but which one should I get the ss comes with a 6.0 it's fast. The ram comes with a 5.7 hemi. The lighting comes with a 5.3. If you were me which one would you get. I don't care about horse power right now. So pick
- How long will a chevy silverado last? Trading in my ford ranger to many problems and issues. Anyways I'm looking at some used silverados they all have over 10000 miles on them. Are they built like toyota tundra and tacoma where they will last forever. In the 90s my mom owned a chevy caviler and a chevy mini van both had the transmission blow quickly and they leaked oil all over the place. Are the trucks like this are they good trucks
- Which should I consider 2001 Chevy Silverado 1500 or 1998 Ford f150? I'm wanting to trade my car in for one of the 2 but which will give me less trouble to keep maintained
- Is a CHEVY Silverado a good pick up truck? How reliable and how maintenance free? Why many American insist on driving them? What about a DODGE RAM? Or a Ford F-150? how compared to a Toyota Tundra? actually I'm not noticing many Nissan Titans… But why? Nissan is not as good as Toyota?
