  1. Sad Truck options in this feature.
    I am waiting for the truly greedy automaker that figures out manufacturing simple Trucks with parts that last, offered at a reasonable cost will truly be “disruptive innovation “ and they’ll corner the market !

    Ford, Gmc, Nissan, Toyota etc etc have
    ruined their own markets with overpriced,
    over engineered garbage vehicles.
    Their “Built-in obsolescence” is making it easy to push them out if existence. Unfortunately more jobs lost due to poor management decisions.

  2. That’s no lie even with me working like a dog and being told my 790 credit would not help in getting a truck at 30,000$ I would be paying 60,000w/interest

  3. Nelson, my friend complained about 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz weak front bumper and overall plastic outer shell. I LOVED my 2019 Honda Ridgeline RTL. Most useful Truck and I did have few Odysseys. I Loved my 2018 Chevy Colorado ZR2 with 35s tires. Most joy. Yes the 35 Toyos are my personal choice. But Hyundai Santa Cruz, I may understand why. Besides a weak front bumper on the Ridgeline and a weird sound console, the HONDA Ridgeline is a REPEAT BUY.

    Thanks for the article. I enjoy reading it.

  4. I feel like trucks/cars built after 2021 are absolute crap. I purposely purchased a used 2021 Tundra Crewmax w/ 40k miles because I did not want the turbo 6cyl and 21’ is the last year of the 5.7V8. These engines last 400k miles and my son who works at a Toyota dealership had warned me that the 2022 & above are in for service often. I notice in this article the only Toyota mentioned is the Tacoma and I believe that was because of the unfavorable reliability.
