I bought my F-150 right after the auto industry bailouts, and only considered Ford just due to their turning down the gov't money. I've had really good luck with my F-150 all things considered. But I have never heard anyone who owns a Tundra say a bad thing about them.

As for the Tundras, is the TRD package worth it for extra protection and ability off the pavement? Most concerned about the skidplates (or lack of), but aftermarket are always options too.


My TRD skid plates suck. Big Toyota fan, but won't get the TRD package next time. Would buy standard SR5 and get an Old Man Emu suspension immediately. Then buy a Tundra Pro skidplate for $450. Love the two Tundras I have owned and love that they are made in Texas vs Mexico.
