Not only has toyota joined the other manufacturers on pricing, they also have joined them on the Reliability aspect.
Very true. Toyora now makes vehicles that are rhe same quality as domestic brands. But toyotas prices have skyrocket well beyond where they should be
Be careful, the 28 year old fanboys can hear criticism like a shark can detect blood. We don't want to create a frenzy of condescension.
@Scroll_Lock 😂have a video coming out this weekend as a message to fanboys!
@@Scroll_LockI was a fanboy but they priced me out from loyalty and this will definitely bite them in the ass overpricing their vehicles. Keeping my 5th Gen 4runner until it dies.
@@nelly13b I'm not ready to buy the last true 4runner unless they have some left over mid 5th gen in 2025 (doubtful). I'm sad about it. I was a long time Toyota lover (as own a 2021 now) and from a family of Toyota loyalty. It was their new design philosophy that pushed me away, and THEN I saw the pricing. I had hopes they would leave the trucks only slightly updated from the last gens, nope. It's now Ram for my retired parents and I'm looking at Pro4x or Colorado (my price range).
the easiest way to evade the BS the automakers are pulling, is to let their vehicles rot on their sales lots.they assume were fools.BUT us fools can make them go broke if we choose too.
Very true
Unless the buyer is a fanboy. In that case, they MUST buy their brand, at all costs, to save their identities.
The more complicated these vehicles get the more problems they will have Period
100%
Nobody cares about quality anymore. I worked in QC for 25 years and the last five years, ending in 2015, were a constant uphill battle. I can only imagine how bad it is now.
Agree 100%. It's a fast moving snowball running down hill getting bigger as it rolls
The Tundra motor failure situation remedy is to find a 2023 V8 unit. Toyota is on a bad path with the turbo and hybrid models.
Hopefully they get their crap in order soon.
They didn’t make a 2023 v8 model lmao. 2021 was last v8 tundra. There honestly hasn’t been near as many Tundra problems as there has been problems with other brands BUT Toyota’s rep is so good the haters will come outta the woodwork
@dcooper91g your right all trucks today have problems. But it's how toyota is handling those problems that is the problem.
Toyota will get what they have coming. This is what happens when as company listens to the whiners. 2022 was the last year the V8s were available for Toyota. 2023 for Lexus. Seeks for the Tacoma are bad. Tundras have big problems. Only the idiots are buying.
@edtpnw1336 toyota has always been simple and old school. Now with all the tech they are gonna face some big problems. Just like all the other brands
I have a 24 Tundra suppose to get first oil change at 5k miles after that 10k but id never go 10k between changes.
Yep definitely would never go 10k miles on any vehicle between oil changes. Always 5k. Especially on a turbo
Might not last 10k anyway
@@mjuberiani have a 23 trd pro and been doing my own oil changes every 3k miles im at a little over 11k miles and zero issues
@@Nathan-zy4bm Good... Its brand new I wouldn't expect that you would have issues but many do.
Rho base is a better deal. Tundra has issues with the 3.4 twin turbos. Up here in Alaska I’ve known two people that the engine blew in the first year.
Yep toyota sucks at first few years of a truck.
Huge fan of the Tundra. My 08 Limited with the V8 was very powerful and reliable. Would never buy a full size truck with a 6 cylinder.
Definitely miss the v8 the tundra had.
I remember the cockiness of the Toyota engineers when asked if the 3.4TT would live up to the reliability of the 3UR and 1UR and they said it would be a million mile engine. Three model years in and this stuff is still going on. And Toyota corporate is insulting buyers by offering just a short block for an expensive truck that just had its first oil change. I can imagine the rage and frustration of paying that massive monthly payment for a truck that you specifically bought because Toyota was supposed to be the brand you go to for reliability, and when the engine blows up, the best they can do is interrogate you as though it may have failed due to something you did, and then they give your dealer a short block and tell them to build an engine using that and the old parts. I'm so so so thankful I didn't pull the trigger on a new Tundra.
@hochhaul agree 100%. Toyota customer service is horrible. What a shame and a big middle finger to it's customers.
Toyota doesn't replace with a crate engine/long block. They only provide a short block and make the techs at the dealership swap everything over. That's one reason it takes so long, but mostly its the wait for the new short block.
Chevy's antenna placement is just behind the front window on the left side top of cab. Looks a bit odd, but not a huge deal. The lifters is the huge deal.
Thank you for that info on antenna location. Yeah the lifters has been a plague for chevy for too long. Just like the 10 speed Trans for ford. Wonder why these companies can't get some of this crap right.
@@SamkoWorkShopCARB/ EPA is why we can't have good things
@@ryandoyle4344 very true
Rams are nice when they're new but I wouldn't go off on their "quality."
In my opinion ram makes one of the best trucks made today. I put ram right at the top of the list for quality in 2024.
My 2024 Canyon (1100 miles) has been in the shop for over a week- waiting on part to fix 2 oil leaks that involved dropping the transmission. Hope they remember to fix my car wash roof dent too. Meanwhile my 2015 4runner is at 195k miles.
Yep they don't build them like they used to. The days of trouble free vehicles is gone. I will never own another vehicle without an extended warranty. All manufacturers suck today
Unbelievable
Sounds like a rear main seal. My 2011 at least waiting until 100k to need a rear main, though I saw other Tundras back then that need a new rear main at 5k miles.
@@Wolf.88 Not really. These days even Toyota 3UR's have needed a rear main seal at low mileage. Shows just how bad quality has declined over the last 10-15 years.
It’s funny that people say they want more affordable trucks…then looking at that gm authority article… “need a race car Cadillac cyber truck that I can also live in for 365 days of the year and it need to be cheap!”
😂 true
I was pointing out back in 2019 that it was foolish to ridicule manufacturers for not being as luxurious as the top Ford and Ram trims. All the tech, tech gimmicks, and luxurious interiors was going to turn it into the new race to see who could build the most expensive truck, and every trim under that ultra luxury trim was going to adjust to a new higher price. Ford and Ram have reached $90k for their ultra lux regular half-ton. They previously topped out in the upper $60k range back around 2018/19. GM and Toyota followed suit and that's why we are in the situation we are currently in.
@hochhaul prices sure are out of control. But manufacturers as seeing that people are not buying as much either and are finally getting around to adjusting prices down slowly.
Technology in a ram truck is cool. Not sitting in the repair shop is much cooler though.
Very true. And I don't like tech in a vehicle. But all my rams and jeeps have served me very well and never ever once had to take any of them to the shop for anything. Loved them all and still do.
He should have bought a 2021 tundra if he wanted it to last naturally aspirated engines are the only way to go
The last gen tundras were outstanding trucks built to last. I think many people bought the new tundra expecting the same given toyotas reputation for the last 30 years. However, that toyota company is not the one we have now.
All this new turbo junk wont last long.
@@IrishNew hope your right. But government is putting its foot down.
I'm so upset how toyota totally screwed up the tundra. They should've kept the 5.7l at least as an option. Even the tow hooks. I mean come on. I have a 2007 tundra and just broke 200k miles and doesn't burn oil, doesn't leak, and it's just being broke in.
Agree 100%. The new one was a step backwards
All manufacturers forced better emissions and Cafe standards. Fined Millions $ by U.S. Government.
Great stuff! And regardless of the haters, you’re absolutely right when you mention Rams reliability. It’s not the Ram of yesterday, but much better. My 2012 is the most reliable vehicle I’ve ever had, period. And have had many makes, including two Toyotas
Yep love ram trucks. They are drama free and reliable. And don't for get better luxury and quality than any other truck available.
Toyota didn’t give people new trucks for their rusted frames so he most likely isn’t getting a new truck either. And yes I own a Tundra that was affected.
That is very true. I know a few people with 2016 and 17 tscoa that got new frames because of rust.
Great video, nailed it.
Thank you
Appreciate you.
Thanks
The other day a current gen Tundra was driving by and boy it sounded like the engine is about to go or something. The engine sounded like it was 20+ year old on it's last leg. Hey I was wondering is the new 2024 Tacoma's any good with the 2.4L Turbo. Any major problems?
Yep they are having some problems already. minor problems but the issue is all parts are bascially backordered with no date for arrival. But its to be expected with a first year truck.
Too soon to tell, but if there are problems, I guess people should expect that Toyota will drag their feet, act like it was something you did, and then give the dealer a short block and tell them to build you a new engine form the old stuff.
New here, and I love this channel. 😊Information Information Information 😊
Thank you. Glad you are enjoying it
Cars and trucks have gotten way too expensive, and they're more expensive to work on. You spend more on the added features for better gas mileage than what you'd spend on the extra gas. It's ridiculous!
Agree 100
Thoughts are with you and your family!❤❤❤
Thank you
Ram trucks are great if reliability isn't factored in.
I've owned a bunch of jeeps and rams. As well as 30 other new trucks. Only brand I've owned that has never went in the shop for anything is ram and jeep. And I ran them for high miles. Love ram and love jeep.
Bring back the bulletproof 5.7 please!!!!
I'm with ya. Would love that.
Oh hell I’m keeping my 2017 2.7 F150
Had that truck with same motor. Loved it! Had 3 of them actually. 2015, 2017, and 2018 all 2.7s.
I liked the 2.7 but it really annoyed me that not only did they put an EGR on it when the 3.5EB didn't, they went ahead and put an EGR cooler on it too. After all the destruction that leaking EGR coolers caused on diesel trucks, the last thing I would want these days is to have one on a turbo gas engine.
Well that explains why the high price on the Taco. Your paying for Lunar Crawler!!!
😂😂
Ford should be required to buy back those transits for any owner who doesn’t accept the downgrade in tires
Won't happen but would be nice if they did
Since when Dodge make any quality products 😂
been a while now
Ram interiors really are quite nice. I'm not interested in owning one but I can give them that one.
Ironic I heard specifically on another review channel how the new TRD Pro and the Outlander camping offroad one overheat their transmissions at the Toyota test course. Why not install a cooler like many other heavy use vehicles? My 2021 Truck they removed the cooler and I'm afraid to tow with my truck now.
Yep the overheating issue will eventually get sorted. But knowing how toyota works it will probably be 2 or 3 years before its solved.
I’m going to buy a low mileage 2021 Toyota Tundra or a 2024 Nissan Titan.
Smart choices
Sounds like Toyota has lost its MOJO.
They build great trucks. They just fail at customer service, customer care, and prices are stupid crazy
It's been fading away for a decade now. Once they changed the language of their new vehicle warranty to say that it's "normal" for their engines to burn 1 quart every 1200 miles, that was the sign of the beginning of the end. Then when the 3rd gen Tacoma was rated least reliable midsize truck by Consumer Reports 3+ years in a row, that was yet another sign. Then there was the 8-speed in the Camry and its issues with torque converters destroying transmissions, Tundras with fuel pump modules leaving trucks stranded. ECU's and other modules failing after a few years, etc. Now they have had engine failures with the new Tundra for three model years and the best they can do is make it a PITA to get the warranty process started, and then insist on a short block instead of doing the right thing and sending a complete crate engine. What an absolute insult to sell the new Tundra at these absurd new prices and then let some random tech at a dealer rebuild an entire engine when the original fails. That looks REALLY bad when even GM is giving customers crate engines for out of spec lifter bores and potentially cracked blocks.
@hochhaul very well said and agree 100%
This is the kind of thing that makes me want to buy a 25 year old honda accord, put a new drivtrain in it and run it for another 350k miles.
Whats the point of some of these new vehicles? Give you headaches? Sell your data? Suck you dry of money?
We are in price ranges now that you could pretty much rebuild any old car multiple times and run the same vehicle for decades
Agree with that. If 2029 is the last year for the gladiator/wrangler (a new j70 coming then) I might buy a 2028 gladiator and just use it for hunting and buy a stupid cheap toy car to commute and keep that new gladiator for 20 years. By then I won't be hunting as hard as much at 71!
@@SamkoWorkShop I'll probably keep the taco a long time. What's hard is I used to trade cars a lot I would get bored. Friend of family was a dealer I'd run around on dealer plates. Or I would have too many cars.
I really like certain older cars. Nice cars. I could pretty much run the Volvo another 15 years if I want to drop 8k into it. Keep the rover. I dunno? Certain cars peak my interest. But it's not even the new ones that interest me. I like older European cars.
Or cars with pop up headlights. Some different characteristics. Cars before seat belt chimes and annoying lights were good.
Interesting cars...
For American cars I kind of still wish I kept my rocket 88. I liked big old American cars. .
I look on lots now and I'm just not seeing a lot I really like, especially for the prices. Would you rather drive a Nissan Altima or a old Cadillac DeVille ? Altima looks like chit compared to a DeVille. I need to be stashing money away and fixing up properties too . I don't want a high car budget.
The Tacoma I don't real care about. it was a long term practical buy. Easy to work on, cheap to fix, last model year, cheap and available parts they made millions of them. Pull up hand brake got to love it. But the computer in the crawl control 4wd still sucks that'll potentially be a headache. I am starting to like the Tacoma more and more. I see why they did sell millions. It'll run around a long while I'm working on something I like better. Keep the car budget low unless it's a work truck or something I can justify for that kind of $. Cost of ownership is a huge thing. And enjoyment. The least cost of ownership for the car you really enjoy the most
@@SamkoWorkShop friend of mine was commuting with a diesel. He bought a new Toyota Corolla off the lot . His payments on the Toyota are lower then he paid in fuel on the diesel. Basically free car . Plus it Keeps the miles on the truck lower. And it makes no sense to commute in something that big and that expensive to run. Look at your fuel budget and do the math. I think I mentioned Volkswagen Jetta too. $21k car 35 mpg. Great commuter I know someone running one of them too put insane miles on it.
I've thought of a Jetta myself for a run around car. Up here in the north where Rust is a issue Jettas also come with really good underbody rust protection. Pretty much full plastic skids under them too. Not bad for 21k.
@@itsallminor6133 all great points.
@@SamkoWorkShop just personal opinions. We all have them. You mentioned a commuter car. People do that. It's economical . And more cars you insure the cheaper each car is to insure. I've had multi car discounts for years
Dam didn't know the Cali lean was still around that look played out in CA in the mid 90s.
Very popular here in the south east. Like crazy popular
There are many new Tundra trucks with blown engines that are less than 5,000 miles on the motor. I do not think it is fare to say that the issue is caused by the extended 10k oil change interval. That motor has such a high torque that they should have built the motor like other manufacturers built their diesel engines.
It would be nice for a company to do interior swaps,i want the 21 tundra 5.7v8 with the new tundras interior.
That's would be cool
Lunar cruiser.. TDR OFF EARTH
Pretty awesome!
Tundra engine blew were hybrid?
Not sure.
The hybrid system isn't causing the failures.
There is a bulletin on the 24 2500 gas 10 speed transmission for hard shifting. Took mine to shop. GM doesn’t have a fix right now. The dealership said they would contact me as soon GM has a fix for it. Probably a software issue.
yep probably a simple reflash when they get it sorted.
New engine+transmission combo. It's going to create these kinds of issues. Just like the multi-year software fix for shifting issues in the 3rd gen Tacoma.
@@hochhaul I hope they will come out with a fix before too much longer.
All these companies sell your data, however if you had access to all the information and some really sharp analysis you would find that some infractions are worse than others. At a minimum, you would at least find different _kinds_ of infractions. One of the problems with privacy concerns is that there is often not a way for a consumer to understand exactly what is happening, and so everything gets lumped into one bucket. For instance, my current understanding is that Nissan S & SV models still don't phone home unless you buy the specific packaged which allows it.
All very good points. The best way to think about it though is all information is available somewhere some way and it's all a commodity
People are bent out of shape about the GM example, but all these manufacturers are certainly doing it or are working on doing it. Data collection is a major source of revenue and they won't abstain. Then against, smartphones have probably been collecting the same data. They can tell how fast you're driving, how aggressively you brake, how fast you travel from one destination to the next. All the sensors are in the phone and Apple/Google have never had a problem with violating privacy to sell your data.
It took 8 weeks to get a new motor, 22 1500 6.2 liter with 23000 seized while driving
That sucks the wait was so long.

*correction: the hood is not stupid. The driver is.
Good point.
The 28 inch tall tires being retrofitted to the 'offroad ready' Transits are not necessarily that small, considering that the 275/40/R18 tires on my Mustang are only 26.6 inches tall. But this being an offroad vehicle, the big tires with increased ground clearance seem to be the whole point. The proper fix would seem to be different fender flares with proper clearance. I can't imagine that they did not realize they had an issue when they released them like this. Tire rub issues are going to be plain as day upon minimal testing. It's a pitiful fail on Ford's part and makes a person wary of buying anything they are putting out right now.
Yep sad fix and sad that it even went out the door with such a simple obvious issue.
When i first setup my Ford Maverick's infotainment, I was able to opt out of sending data analytics. So in my experience, Ford was at least up front about data. Not that it's a selling point, but these manufacturers can choose to be up front if they want to.
😆😆😆 You need an Ad Blocker
That's good ford offers that. I'm not sure how much it really prevents being sent. But it's a start. I know ford collects alot of data , heard the engineers saying they know how often a vehicle is put into 4 wheel drive etc.
RacerX had to get the engine replaced in his brand new Dodge Challenger Demon 170. It has like 2,000 miles on it.
All brands will have problems and engines will have to be replaced. It's how they are replaced that matters. And toyota is doing wrong by only replacing the block. Should be replaced with a complete crate motor. Not a tear down and rebuild. Too much can go wrong. And it's has as one guy is on his 3rd tundra motor
@SamkoWorkShop ya, it's crazy the one guy is on his 3rd engine. I would've traded it in at that point. I was actually researching 2022+ tundra TRD Pro's to buy vs. Ram vs. F150. That's what brought me to your channel. It seems like I'm going to be taking a shot in the dark regardless of which brand I buy. I'm debating on just upgrading the factory radio to a touch screen with android auto and having my truck professionaly detailed and just keeping it (2009 GMC Sierra). I've been driving the same truck for almost 12 years now and I'm just bored with it and want something newer.
@userundefined01 yep they can and do all have issues these days. Not made like they used to be. Sad too with bow much the trucks cost as well as service. I won't own a new one without an extended warranty today.
People thought I was crazy for running out last fall and buying a 2023 Taco trd pro. I drove 4 hours to get it in Solar Octane but at $2000 off msrp. Who’s crazy now!!!?
oustanding deal on an amazing truck
I was test-driving a 2024 Toyota Tacoma Trd Off-Road rear disk breaks and a lot to like until I popped the hood and was like nope I am out. So I left with a 2023 Toyota Tacoma TRD off-road with 10k sometimes old is better.
😂 it's a rats nest under the hood of the 24. And I think you made the right decision. Congratulations on your new 23 trd or!

How can we stop are info being sent out to Insurance companies?
You can't. I can't. And government wont
Can we go to the dealer and tell them to stop sending our info out
@@codymarshall5753 Its not the dealers. the vehicle sends the info through wifi to a data collection server. Its the vehicles that do it. Hopefully someday some tech company makes a plug in that can shut that down.
The data collection was done through OnStar due to an option being enabled by dealers. You have to turn that option back off.
@@SamkoWorkShop The dealers were toggling on a specific option when setting up OnStart for new vehicles that were sold to customers. This setting enabled OnStar to collect and sell individual data. Two dozen differenet manufacturers and other businesses have been working on collecting data through smartphones. If you want to learn about it, search for an article by The Intercept titled "Your Car Is Spying on You, and a CBP Contract Shows the Risks"
Pretty interiors don't remotely have anything to do with quality. That should be obvious.
Jeep and Ram phenomenal? 😮
Yes, yes they are.
Not the damn Cherokees ... Fiat products with noisy I4 engines and ZF 9-speed slushboxes. My 2020 does nothing but shift, and beep idiot warnings at me. My love of Jeeps pretty well died when the 4 liter straight 6 went away.
@rogerb5615 to each their own. I always have and always will love jeep. Including my 2020 cherokee trailhawk and my 2019 renegade. Bith were flawless and both paid me to drive em.
What company does not have some bad cars?
None. They all have major problems and all suck at quality control. Said it many times in many videos. Brand loyalty is a waste
GM sold individual information, some just sell aggregate info. Ram is usong that stupid rotary shifter next to the radio.
Yep but I like that rotary shift much better than the new e shifters ford and chevy use. Man those drive me nuts
It was individual information for those that had a shitty dealer that enabled an option on OnStar to collect the data. Only certain customers were being spied on. If OnStar was disabled, it wasn't collecting the data. Any collection of data, even aggregate, is a violation of privacy. These data hoarding companies are able to take aggrregate data from multiple sources and create an individual data profile. Anyone driving around with a smartphone is particularly at risk, as Google and Apple have zero misgivings for collecting that data and selling it. The feds are the biggest buyers, followed by insurance companies.
i think with the tire downgrade they are trying to scare buyers into not bothering to bring it in and to just live with the rubbing...or fix it yourself with new rims or a lift..."hey, we provided a solution"...take it or leave it type mentality.
You very well could be right. Saves them money either way
Think auto makers are having problems now just wait till they have to add the mandated breathalyzer technology to all new vehicles. 🤦♂️
That will be a disaster of mis reads, fails etc.
So Toyota is going to make a Nevada desert vehicle amazing
If only the EPA and well the other agencies …and well the government itself could just disappear .
Gov sure is doing to the auto industy what it has done to the gas can nozzle. and is doing it the same way. total mess up.
Ford makes the best trucks
Some think so. I think all new trucks are equal todat
Toyota engine failure would be covered under warranty unless it's been modified. In the automotive service industry we don't say always or never, we've seen too many strange occurrences to use that language. Could you imagine telling the customer "yup it's covered" only to find he's been running nitrous? "Should be covered" is much safer language. 30 day replacement time is likely related to parts availability more than anything else I would imagine, unless the dealership is short on technicians which is VERY common in the industry right now.
They are only replacing the block and as seen in the video. The techs can not put it back together correctly resulting in going in for its 3rd new motor. Toyota should of gave a whole new plug and play crate motor. That what gm does!
@@SamkoWorkShop Damn, I will try to find and watch his video later, sounds like a mess. It does seem like it may be related to the technician shortage though, it's hard to find quality techs these days. I agree with you, I would want a new engine rather than just a block replacement, especially after the failed repair attempts. Thanks for the video and the reply!
@bullitthead7853 I imagine it's very hard to be a seasoned toyota tech today. Toyota has always been simple and easy systems for the most part. And now all this complexity has to present some serious challenges. And stepping a brand new tundra motor to the block and putting it all back together would be a brutal job with many possibilities for something to go wrong. Toyota pulling it head out of its butt and just offering a new crate motor would of saved the customer, the dealership and the techs a bunch of head aches. And I can't imagine the cost of all that labor being that far off from the cost of the crate motor. This was a bad move by Toyota and everyone suffered. If you do get a chance to watch that video it's amazing to see what had to be torn down and off to make this happen.
I believe toyota doesn't have replacement engines only sell short blocks
They got hundreds of crate engines going in assembly line trucks every week
Yes they do but from what I understand for repairs they don't

The engineer on that engine design says it is a ok ,they tested it thoroughly.with a new oil.
Id still do 5k. Would never do 10k on any vehicle especially a turbo.
That's nonsense.
I believe the truck body has to be removed in order to replace the engine. Get a new truck.
Pulling the cab is actually pretty easy. All the super duty ford's are like that too. I guess a dealer can pull a cab off in very little time.
God help the astronauts on the moon with their Toyota rover.
😂😂that was made in Japan by Japanese workers. It's probably all good.
My wife and I added the State Farm discount Safe Drive module to our cars. Might as well get something since they may get the info anyway.
Yep I believe it saves you like 10%. I had to cancel it as I play youtube videos when I drive (just to listen) and stste farm thinks I'm on my phone all the time driving 😂
They have been getting the info for years. Search google for this article "Your Car Is Spying on You, and a CBP Contract Shows the Risks"
My cut-off is 2007. I will.not drive a car with touchscreens and "lane & brake assist", i quite well do that myself.
My car also doesnt communicate with the mothership telling God knows who how fast I drive.
Very smart thinking. And the reliability of those older vehicles is unmatched today. And don't get me started on the cost vs value of new vehicles vs those older ones. You are being very smart.
@@SamkoWorkShop Thank you. My Toyota turned 18 in March (18 real year, on the road years).
If you have a smartphone, they don't need you to drive a high tech vehicle. Google and Apple are more than happy to track that information and sell it to anyone with the money to buy it. Modern smartphones are scary accurate at showing where you are. Like within feet. They can also tell when you're driving, how you are driving, where you go, your travel habits, where you stop to eat, how long you eat, how often you eat there, etc.
Ram sales are way down, i saw 15% from another youtuber. Ram and Jeep are not doing well.
Thry are rock solid and more profit then they ever had. The reason sales are down is because of their prices (witch they are starting to bring down, but you could always negotiate much better with ram anyway). And jeep same thing plus jeep canceled 2 of its biggest sellers this year the cherokee and the renegade. They are doing just fine sales wise.
Between 2010 and 2019, Ram and Jeep made the bulk of their sales by being affordable and with minimal tech. From 2019 onwards, the strategy was all about pushing Ram and Jeep upmarket, selling very expensive vehicles like Ram 1500 Limiteds and Jeep Grand Wagoneers, as well as Jeep Gladiators that were as expensive as full-size trucks.
GM is not replacing the whole engine just the 1lifter thats bad. Its not brand new engine bs i had 1 the engine blew 2twice on me. I repeat dont not buy a 2023 6.2.
As someone that buys new and keeps for as long as possible. Modern New vehicles are not ment for 15 20+ years in my opinion. Im in my 30s and dread having to give up my 09 f150 and 06 explorer. They are stock and get me places most people would not consider taking a vehicle. Will buy a 4runner or titan this year to buy be time till my 50's. Dont need or want technology turbo bs. All vehicles will need repairs at some point.
And the 24 4 runner will run for decades trouble free. No better long term vehicle to own right now.
So you got 2 guys with bad engines in Toyota but you say RAM has quality?? Wait till the hurricane comes thru!
I trust ram more than toyota right now 100% but you believe what you want to.
"V8s are more reliable"....lmao not the ones made from American automakers. Proves its not the number of cylinders but rather the engineering that matters!
Lots of great info on this if you want to learn. Google searches are your friend. If I say something on this channel it's fact not speculation
I had just as good of luck with American V8's as I have with Toyota V8's. One of them even has AFM.
Dude you basically start off talking about how bad Stellantis is in every way, then you brag about the Ram pickup. How great it is, how it is the best truck with the best quality and so on. Yet the 5.7 Hemi has been plagued with camshaft/lifter failure, so much so that a class action lawsuit has been issued. It's been an issue for several years now, and Ram has done nothing to fix it yet. Yet you rag on Ford for putting a bandaid on issues it sucks but at least they are doing something compared to Ram. We can tell you a Ram fanboy and biased in your video since you leave out basically all information on the Ram trucks.
Look how many class action suits ford has right now. Or how many recalls they have had. More than any other company each year for last 4 years. I am not loyal to any brand and don't even own a ram. But if I bought a new truck today I promise you it would not be ford or toyota. And yes stelantis sucks. And yet I also said ram is great. And the semi is gone. Old news, out of here, no longer relevant.
Why has Ford had timing chain and cam phaser issues for 20 years and still hasn't bothered to fully eliminate the issues?
Wthell is ANYONE gonna take a transit off-road???
S9 many people use them for overlanding and adventure rigs. To hit forest roads to great camp sites, and nights on the river and running the trail systems to experience the great outdoors
I'm old school. I like my pick up to look like a pick up. But I don't think it's right unless it's a danger to other people to tell a man what his truck should look like if he paid for it himself.
Agree 100% on both counts
It’s hilarious that according to you Ford is just a completely crap company because they are replacing tires on a van but Toyota and GM are replacing engines that are failing with less than 10k miles but they build great quality vehicles. No bias there at all.
You should watch more of my videos. Maybe you would re think that
It's a real shit thing to do to sell a van specifically marketed towards overlanders, put such little effort into the package that they didn't even bother to make sure the tires wouldn't rub, and then recall them to put tiny tires on it to negate the entire purpose of spending the money for the vehicle in the first place. It's like selling a Raptor and then recalling it and putting 30" tires on it in place of the 35" tires. And you do realize that Ford has had a TON of engine failure issues, right? From the small ecoboost engines failing in brand new Broncos, to F-150's with Gen 4 5.0 Coyotes dropping valves, they deal with just as many engine failures lol
U think ram has quality 😂😂😂😂
Yes. Yes, I 100% do. Matter of fact I rank full size trucks in this order ram, gm, toyota, ford for quality. You believe what you want to.
@@SamkoWorkShopfriend what do you think is it worth to buy 3.0l duramax zr2 1500 chevy or 3.0l hurricane ram rebel ? Thank you! I prefer more engine reliability
@volodymyrprosov6134 I don't know much about the duramax. Never owned own and don't follow full size trucks too much. But in my opinion for engine reliability in a full size the ford f150 v8 or the 3.5 ecoboost are proven quality motors. The new hurricane I expect to be amazing but I would give it a year or 2 to get any bugs worked out.
The chevy v8s are still available and good motors too.
Anything I'd buy today I would get an extended warranty on as well. Repair costs have quadrupled in last 2 years.
Ram and quality don’t belong in the same sentence!! Lmdao no way in h€LL!! I’m 52 and those to words don’t go together and I’ve owned a few Dodges(aka Ram)
Cool. I'm 51 and I would buy a new ram all day any day and I'd trust it way more than a new toyota. Guess that why we have so many brands to choose from. Something for everyone.
why is everybody pushing Ram lately...they are junk...everybody is making junk. trying to transition into high mileage vehicles in the cheapest was possible. 1970s all over again
nothing junk about new ram trucks today.
@@SamkoWorkShop I know a couple of Ram owners , vehicles are less than three years old. One guy has some kind of engine management problem where his truck goes into limp-mode. Dealer hasn't been able to fix it in 3 attempts. Another guy.has constant transmission problems and is going to initiate a lemon law complaint. Have Ram trucks improved drastically since 2021 and 22?
@signkutter9218 every manufacturer has issues. Ram has way less than the others and ram handles warranty customer care better than most.
You lost me at ram and quality..
Of course I did. But I know what I know
@SamkoWorkShop I know I wouldn't own dodge unless it was free,then I'd trade for a ford.current dodges are not anywhere as good as they used to be.
Ram and Jeep stink. Just look at their consecutive years of double digit market losses.
😂😂
@@SamkoWorkShop Jeep had their lowest sales year since 2014 last year and some how they are doing about the same this year. Last year Ram had its worst year since 2015 and is down 26% over 2023. The former Chrysler had a niche that had "American" vehicles which were more affordable than GM/Ford FCA and Stellantis took that model and threw it into the trash. Their goal was to make Jeep into the next Land Rover and no one has a clue what their plans for Chrysler, Dodge, and Ram are but it's not working.
The 6.2l engine is far from fantastic. It’s a reliability nightmare. Garbage. GM is garbage.
I'd buy one without question and I'd have zero concerns
@@SamkoWorkShop honestly, i am glad that you have had good luck with them. I would not wish my horror story on my worst enemy.
My story started with my Silverado 1500 6.2l (26,000 miles) leaving my wife and kids and myself on the side of the interstate in the middle of now where, after a piston went right through the engine block. After 6 months of not getting a new engine from GM, i jumped ship. Fast-forward to just a few months ago, my Tahoe with 5.3l, then a few months later my work silverado with 6.2l, all had major issues that sucked SOOOO much of my money. Yes, maintenance was to a tee. Now one of my employees is having issues with his 5.3l. Its surreal that this many vehicles from GM then we have owned, have been absolute garbage. GM could not have been any less helpful, neither could the local dealership.
I have a few Nissan titans in my work fleet as well, and a boddy has one with 380k on his. These titans have been rock solid.
I was a GM fan, but i will never be a customer again. Searching GM and AFM and lifter issues, its obvious that they have some serious problems.
I do wish you the best of luck with yours. I just did not with mine. Any of them.
@ridynh7923 sorry you had to go thru all that. Those problems are unfortunately in every brand right now. Every full size truck had major engine problems (except ram actually). Trucks are not made as good as theu used to be. And I would not own any new trucknoutside of warranty and always will buy an extended warranty. The days of reliability are gone in every brand now.
@@SamkoWorkShop you are not wrong. GM damn neat financially ruined me. x3 vehicles in 2 years... I ended up trading off my truck and taking a huge loss on it. I am just going to continue to drive my titan, which like i said has been bullet proof. (knock on wood) To say that i am terrified to buy anything right now, would be an understatement. Trucks are certainly not the only vehicles having issues. SUV's, crossovers, ETC. Its said.
Then executive teams from all these manufacturers should be forced out, and new minds brought in. Like, take pride in your products!! Problem is, they dont have too because people will just continue to buy.
Great video! If nothing else, lets me know i am not alone. haha (which is sad)
@@ridynh7923 You are definitely not alone and its not just gm. This is happening all too often today. Its disgusting.
Squated truck is one of the dumbest thing to do to a truck
Agree. But I love how people take pride of ownership in thier trucks again. The lean might not be my thing but I sure do smile and feel good when I see a 25 year old washing and waxing his truck that he puts so much of his hard earned money into.
At least the ford’s engine doesn’t need replaced. The Chevy will leave you stranded because the engine is junk. Plus the Chevy garage will have your truck for a month. At least the ford will get you where you need to go. It sounds like you’re a Chevy guy, every other brand is junk to you, but Chevy is perfect. You are way to bias to be fair!
I don't even own a chevy. I own a toyota, and a jeep and have owned 16 ford's.
You’re being quite disingenuous. All automakers collect data where possible. Most will monetize this data where possible. What all automakers aren’t doing is selling the data to Lexus Nexus which in turn is selling it to insurance companies. Stop spreading disinformation that “all automakers are doing it”. You don’t know what all automakers are doing. You don’t even have a clue.
Read what you wrote again. Appreciate the comment
I own a repair facility and ram sucks you can kiss them all you want they are junk
I love ram. Have owned a bunch of ram and jeeps and never once needed to ever go to the shop with any of them. Ever
What truck brand would you recommend to look at? I am in the market for buying new 1500 pickup, thanks
Im sure the new Toyota moon vehicle will be made in Mexico.
It will be sitting stranded on the moon with issues I'm sure
😂😂
