The older Fjs were expensive, but fine. The newer ones are too expensive and prissy. They're for suburban mom's. The t100 is too underpowered and couldn't compete with F150s and Rams. GMs trucks are junk. The toughness of an American truck like an Fseries, just depends on the options.

"The t100 is too underpowered and couldn't compete with F150s and Rams."

In terms of power and maximum capability no but those things ran forever. Something you could never say about a Ram. If Toyota can put out a truck that combines reliability with the power of a big American truck, i'd buy it in a heart beat.

GM's trucks are junk, eh?

I've got a '98 K2500 (8 bolt wheels) that I've used extensively offroad in the Utah deserts. I've lost count of the Ford and Jeep products I've had to tow out. LOL!

If you are referring to the 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser, you are way off base. One of the reasons I am buying one is that it is a hard-core off-road vehicle. Try doing a little research before you spout off.
