Default New Pickup Suggestion

Hey everyone, I'm currently in market for a new pickup. Although I have not made up my mind what exactly I will be getting, I would like to hear some suggestions you guys might have. I'm currently leaning towards a Tundra as reliability is the only thing I care about, and I've read countless comments that 300k miles for the 5.7 engine is a walk in the park with regular maintenance. Please feel free to drop down any ideas of other trucks that might be worth looking into, and I'm only interested in naturally aspirated engines. Thanks!

The Tundra is a good truck. Many people say the 5.7 engine lasts a long time if you take care of it.

You could also look at the Toyota Tacoma. It is smaller but strong.

The Ford F-150 has some engines that are not turbo. The Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra also have engines like that.

Check an online marketplace to see prices and trucks near you. You might find good deals.

Drive a few trucks to see which one feels good. Hope you find a good truck!

Hey man,
Tundra’s a solid pick if you’re lookin’ for something that’ll last. That 5.7 engine can run forever if you keep up with oil changes and basic stuff.

You might wanna check out Ford trucks too. They’ve got some strong engines, and a few of 'em don’t come with turbos — less stuff to go wrong.

Good luck finding the right one!
