Ford Focus RS is made in Germany, at Saarlouis, some Mercedes are made in Alabama, I wouldn't buy a Mitsubishi that wasn't made in Nagoya, really depends on the model and where it's made more than the brand.

Yeah, I'd take a Ford F-150 over a Tundra, any day of the week, it all depends, but when it comes to pickup trucks, buy American is the only way to go, F-150, Sierra, Silverado, or Ram.

I don't understand buying a foreign truck. But if you have the money always get the HD series like 250 and 2500. You're not saving any gas with the base and especially not with that worthless v6. They aren't as reliable and pushing that frame down a highway with a v6 is literal cuckoldry. Well unless the frame is small like a Dakota, s-15 or ranger.

It would be hard not to buy the new Raptor, 3.5L V6 twin turbo pickup truck, hell-oh, ain't nothing cucky about 450hp and 0-60 in five flat.

Does hasn't had the best run of factory turbos so far. I would hold off on it and see how it does. It is beautiful though. Does it come with a six speed? I swear to fuck they quit making trucks with a stick and it pisses me the fuck off.Smitty-48 wrote:It would be hard not to buy the new Raptor, 3.5L V6 twin turbo pickup truck, hell-oh, ain't nothing cucky about 450hp and 0-60 in five flat.

Although when I buy a truck soon I'm going to buy an F150 over a Tacoma because the F150 gets better MPG and has more tow capacity and room.
But you're right the 250s, 350s, and Cummins trucks are forever trucks
