Honestly, I owned an Avalanche. It did everything I needed, including haul a cement mixer and my dirtbike. It makes those Caddies look like a really good deal.
I own a Escalade EXT.. GREAT TRUCK. Can convert to 8ft bed. ALL wheel drive, 6.2 LS. Downfall they are super rare and they hold the vlaue pretty well depending on milage. A low miles 07 can still can go for $20-30k.
Ford head design they liked to spit spark plugs out the the cam phasers took the bottom end’s out. The bodies a😢suspension were ok but the motors are shit. Good looking truck though.
With ford avoid the one with 3 valves per cylinder because if the valve rattles the whole engine is trash and Nissan the catalytic converters breaks off and is sucked in to the engine and trashes it and the hemi has a valve tick and most knows what that means
Had an 01 hemi. Guess it had a tick maybe. Was a longbed, and been searching 3 weeks now, trying to decide whether to get another one, or maybe save up for Tundra. All the old trucks are jacked up in price.
Hey Ideal Fam, Could you all rank hybrids. I'm thinking of getting a hybrid pickup but I can't give up on my overlanding dreams. Even if I have to wait a few years for a better price or the bugs to be worked out.
I own a chevy k1500 with a 5.7 v8. Bought for 2k had 294k miles and had an rebuilt engine with 30,000 miles on it. It's an awesome truck. Great for towing, easy to work on, I've had no problems out of it only an oil leak, but I maintain it and it keeps going.
Just saying you can find a first gen raptor for between 10 and 20k. Also this is just the video I need as I've been looking for a decent truck/tow rig/ off-roading rig lately So thank you.
Just don't buy the 2004 F150. Plus, it wasn't the only one that blew out spark plugs. The 4.6s also blew them. I've read up on a bunch. Aluminum head with poorly machined threads is a deal breaker.
Had a 2012 silverado v6 and it was total garbage. Had planned to LS swap it once the gutless v6 blew up but to my surprise the frame rusted away before the engine had time to fail. Got 120,000 miles out of that truck from new and parked it in a garage...even undercoated it. Junk. My 2012 Ram 4th Gen gets parked outside, regularly gets driven hard over 9000KM from Ottawa to Vancouver and back (4500KM straight each way only stopping for gas) and has 300,000 on the odometer. Same undercoat with no rust issues...While it's on its 2nd transmission that was the previous owners problem to pay for. Not sure why Rams get a reputation for being unreliable and Silverados are known for reliability. I'm normally a BMW guy so I have no brand loyalty in america and my patience for car issues is obviously high but that silverado was worse than even some of my flakiest clapped out bimmers.
I've actually got an 04 6.0 and OMG it used to be a nightmare! But bulletproof pretty much nailed the aftermarket support on them. I bought my truck for 10k put another 5k in parts and head studs into it and I've actually gone a little over 259k miles without a breakdown on it and I'm pushing the half a million mile mark! *Edit* I went to the Ford dealership in town and they were selling an 02 F350 single rear wheel crew cab just like mine for $29,995 🤣 So I guess my trucks worth nearly double what I've got into it right now
So we're just going to skip the elephant in the room then huh? F-250&350 diesels? Granted I've got an 04 6.0 but with all the aftermarket support from bulletproof it'll last well into the 700k range
@@danielparks9035 you got that right! Those 6.4's are about the worst diesel ever made. I guess they have gotten pretty expensive lately. Used to be you could get an early '00's 2 or 350 for around 10k
*Which truck would you snag from this list?*
And tell your friends about Ideal and help us hit 1 million subs! bit.ly/IdealCarsRUclips
Wait i thought it was RUclips wife by now
The yeller one.
I like her
I already snagged an 06 canyon with the inline 5 for only 1200 and it bucks my dad likes it more than his 2016 Colorado

It’s like the Pontiac Aztec for trucks lol
@@its-ascencio1351 🤣🤣🤣
Let’s be honest, Titans get like 9 mpg. You will pay for that truck in gas if you drive more than 20 miles a day

The ford f150 with the 2v 4.6 and 5.4 v8 to me were the only reliable ones the mid 2000s 3v v8s had the most issues not sure why
Plugs and cam phaser issues... plugs tend to snap off in the head on the 5.4 3v, while the 4.8 3v wasn't as problematic.

If you're buying a RAM, avoid the 4.7. The 5.7 hemis have been pretty bulletproof for the most part.
@@joelstolarski2244 with the new tundras losing their V8 engines, the old ones are going to skyrocket in price.
Gas price will go higher. This could be a very dangerous time to buy big engine.
Venezuela fan here!! Love your videos!!
Yes talk trucks more often!
Just need to say, it’s awesome seeing RUclips girlfriend in this video style like this on the channel! Great job girl! Look forward to seeing more:)
Shout out to the titan 🙌. It is a good and cheap truck. I got my 2008 for 2k. Came with the tow package and everything
20k for a Cadillac.Cough up the extra cash for a ram srt10
I luv this one. I have a chevy colorado v6 and I luv it. I wanted the silverado but don't have the space for it.
This vid helps me out with my drive train choice on my next Ford pick up! Thanks RUclips Girlfriend!

I love my old Sivlerado. That TBI 350 (L05) sucks balls though. Worst flowing heads GM ever made on a SBC (actually the L03 I think holds that title)
Don't forget about the camphasers in the 5.4
honorable mention is really honorable😌😌💛💛
In Australia it’s called a Nissan Navarra here
Ash is back!!!!!!
Just saying you can find a first gen raptor for between 10 and 20k. Also this is just the video I need as I've been looking for a decent truck/tow rig/ off-roading rig lately So thank you.
Please cover more information on trucks.
Also what is the deal with the Jeep Trailblazer
Could you guys put the cars in the description
I love the F 150 i am currently in the market for one in Charlotte NC
I want to see more of trucks content best people choices for fun
What happened to the Tundra??
No ranger ?
No love for minivans on this channel??!!
The new odyssey is bringing sexy back and is pretty.... dare I say.... IDEAL! 😏.
Cheap is under 5,000 we not making so much mulla like you guys to call 11,000 cheap 😭
Thanks for the insight!
Gotta go GMC, cuz it’s a GMC! You know….
It's called an engine. Motors are electric baby
Raptor was great with the V8
when I found out it's twin Turbo... I say Ram REX won this futures.... the Jackery Electric Power Source is Cool 👦🏻👍🏻🏎🏁🏞
Make video on dually pick ups pls!!
"Little F 150".....F350 entered the chat💀😂
But that SRT10 Ram will shot up again like a weed because its powered by an viper 10 cylinder.
Me and my dad have a f350 6.8 v10
youtube girlfriend is the new main presenter of this channel.. yah.. 😎
are there alot of people with land cruisers and patrols over in the states because we got tones of them down in Australia
i love the nissan titan but it only gets 12 city and `17 highway
lol
No Tundra?
Isaiah Kyler. Does Toyota make a off-road vehicle???
Just don't buy the 2004 F150. Plus, it wasn't the only one that blew out spark plugs. The 4.6s also blew them. I've read up on a bunch. Aluminum head with poorly machined threads is a deal breaker.
Only talk about trucks! I own a raptor and about to buy another one!
Appreciate the info 👍
can we PLEASE get more youtube gf on this channel????? thanks in advance. shes bad ass
cool video
More trucks please
Had a 2012 silverado v6 and it was total garbage. Had planned to LS swap it once the gutless v6 blew up but to my surprise the frame rusted away before the engine had time to fail. Got 120,000 miles out of that truck from new and parked it in a garage...even undercoated it. Junk.

Yeah no I’m not going near a new ish Ford truck also the 6.0 power stroke is a hella nono
I've actually got an 04 6.0 and OMG it used to be a nightmare! But bulletproof pretty much nailed the aftermarket support on them. I bought my truck for 10k put another 5k in parts and head studs into it and I've actually gone a little over 259k miles without a breakdown on it and I'm pushing the half a million mile mark!

Can u speak about a infinite m45
Ford 5.4 3 valve is ass don’t even bother. Eco boosts are unreliable. 4.6 is bulletproof and so is the 5.0
and the hilux?
8:56 except Lexus. Some of them might even be selling for more than their original price.
Only Lexus I can think of that doesn’t really decrease in value is the LFA…
I don’t know much about trucks but wat year is the truck shown at 7:44
look who's back.😄miss youtube girlfriend herself.
i found a new 2020 camry gl for 13k dollars and a 2022 fortuner for 14k dollars
Early 2000 ford or dodge trucks
So we're just going to skip the elephant in the room then huh? F-250&350 diesels? Granted I've got an 04 6.0 but with all the aftermarket support from bulletproof it'll last well into the 700k range
You forgot the $ before $700k
6.0 with mods yea maybe but the 6.4 is trash. Besides, they mentioned diesels weren't on the list because they are too expensive.
@@danielparks9035 you got that right! Those 6.4's are about the worst diesel ever made. I guess they have gotten pretty expensive lately. Used to be you could get an early '00's 2 or 350 for around 10k
Chevy’s can swing around rams all day
Then you woke up 😂
Let’s face it.. out of the big 3, GM is most disappointing with the power output, and the damn 4L60 likes to grenade itself.
But that’s an old rusty Tundra.
Oh yes.
2500 baby
Speaking of trucks, I thought the Ram TRX was going to be sporty low to the grond. But it's a stupid offoader
cool
More trucks
no toyota?? really!

You are way better for me than RUclips girlfriend
