I pounded miles on my 82 and 96 F150’s .
Both had the4.9L (300 In-line) 6cyl. I ordered them.
Though they were a 1/2 ton, I put 3/4 ton rear suspension. I worked the hell out of them. My 82, I put over 300K on it and my 96, I got 460K miles.
Aw man, the Mazda B2000.... I learned how to drive on one of those when I was 15, and yes it was a 5 speed manual. My dad took me to the Lost Colony parking lot (empty at the time), and after some practice, put an empty NesTea can on the dashboard. Then he said "You drive around until you don't knock that can over."
Good times, and it's why I prefer stick shift over automatic.
LIKED - Great coverage bro!
I somewhat agree with this list. It's it's either an late model 90s f150, Chevy, or dodge those are reliable. But once they get to the early 2000s reliability goes down the dramatically. The Nissan frontier is actually more reliable than the titan in my experience. And for Toyota either the tundra or Tacoma regardless of year are all reliable. For Mitsubishi and Mazda I guess I will have to take your word for it since I never drove one
Love it bro
Damn! I purchased a 2015 RAM and 2021 RAM, and never any problems. Both are Motor Trend trucks of the year. 😮
The Tundra’s really are incredible trucks.
My ex girlfriend’s grandfather had one and it had a bullet hole through the hood, the front end was smooshed in an accident, and I’m sure a million other things that I don’t know about, but it turned over and drove like it just left the lot.
We currently have a 11 Ranger XLT super cab 4X4 with a 4.0L V6. We mainly use it around our property. It only has 35K original miles.
Again the Silverado is a good truck with near no issues but theres always issues
The 1988 to 1998 gmt400 are near 33 years old depending on age
The 1500 used the 4.3v6 5.0 5.7 v8
The 2500 used the 5.7 6.5td 7.4 v8
I would never touch a 6.5 turbo diesel
The gmt800 has issues with the 5.3 v8
The lm7 is notorious for oil starvation
The 4.3 v6 4.8 v8 6.0 were all solid engines but the 5.3 will have oil starvation issues so keep that in mind
The gmt900+ that use the 5.3 6.2auto have gm afm system that will go from v8 to v4 this can be horrible like he said but if you can find a low mileage example out of warranty go put a 100$ tune to disable the system
Just keep in mind theres no such thing as a cheap truck but the list is all the good engines to buy
3.0 i4 Duramax (do research)
4.3 v6
4.8 v8
5.0 v8
5.3 v8
5.7 v8
6.0 v8 Denali escalade Silverado ss in these half tons but usually 2500+
6.2 v8
6.6 gas v8 2500+ only
6.6td (do research) 2500+ only
7.4 v8 2500+ only
8.1 v8 2500+ only
Keep in mind I didn't add the smaller turbo 4 cylinders because anything in a full size truck that is a i4 is gonna do nothing but fail
Buying the 2.7 turbo is dumb
The 5.3 and 6.2 will require a tune to delete the afm
The 5.3 will require if after 2007
Early 5.3 in 2007 may not have afm but do research to check
The 3.0 Duramax is made by Isuzu so no worries on it failing but always do research on your engine
If it’s not a tundra or a Tacoma I don’t want to hear about reliability
Agreed, maybe including the Honda Ridgeline
@Brian Jake Gaming And Jeeps Or Old Defenders I Know Theirs A Few More But Cant Think Of Them Atm
The 1988 2.9 5speed ranger would like to have a talk
Hilux wants a word
The 2001-2004 V6 Nissan Frontier, especially the Desert Runner, are essentially forever-running tanks. That specific Frontier > any Toyota. My two cents…
Almost every reviewer of pickup trucks will slam my 1997 Dodge Dakota. I had bought it used from a buddy of mine for way less than his Grandfather originally paid. Living in the non-stop chemical applications of calcium chloride because of the snow and ice State of Minnesota, I had quite a rust problem. Otherwise, the truck was good to me. 4-wheel drive worked flawlessly, and I'd make it to work and back serenaded to the excellent sound system!
Among the trucks from your list, which is comfortable for long drive, Brad? Thank you in advance.😀
I got a 04 silverado 2500hd extended cab, extended bed for 2200 bucks. It has the 6.0 and ido how many miles because it says odometer error lmao. All I know is the guy who owned it maintained it really well
A Ford/Mazda 4 cylinder 5 speed was pretty reliable. As long as you only used 5th gear when empty but not when pulling a empty trailer.
300,000+ miles not unusual for those with the motor never getting wrenched on. That also required 3K mile oil changes and 50K coolant changes.
But only got 25 MPG.
Full Load and a trailer, 55 mile hour max in 4th. No 5th gear or just get used to swapping out the transmission while that one gets rebuilt.
Oh & yes every year the transmission was just different. Enough that you needed the entire shifter and transmission assembly for that year.
mazda b2200 / 90’s ford ranger = the miata of pickups!
my 90 ranger has been perfectly reliable for 23 years i owned it.i dont beat it, but haul 750+ pounds 3 times a week.200k miles.still runs like the day i bought it.paid 3k for it in 2000.all the truck i'll ever need.
@@timkis64what engine?
The Mazda b series is a rebadged ranger Same power plant better price also I think a Nissan hardbody is the cheap way to go
Good luck finding a Mighty Max that is not rusted out. Love that truck though
You should of lumped the Ranger & the B-2 together. And yes there have been tons of bad rangers. Especially from the 80's.
WTF? The Ranger and the Mazda ARE THE SAME CAR. I have no idea how an automotive UA-cam channel mentions the Mazda B2000 without sharing the fact that it's a rebadged Ford Ranger. That's why parts are inexpensive and it's so cheap to maintain. How tf do you not mention that when talking about the Mazda and then put them both on different spots on the list? Holy crap 🙄
bro calm down
Silverado’s up to 2007 are solid. The Chevy 5.3 v8 is one of the most reliable engines ever made
What about the nissan titan?
Hmmm you got me thinking. I like cheap and small.
Ford's turbocharged engines can be very troublesome, perhaps unlike the v-8s. Recommendations could reliably be made for specific configurations. Locally, a customer with a brand-new vehicle's turbocharger had significant issues, that Ford said wasn't covered. I own a Ram Laramie, that has had no problems; also never had a ride that's this good!
I agree with the turbo engines from Ford.
The 302, (5.0L) engine has been around for more than 50 years.
A few years ago Ford put in low friction rings in the 302 which gave Ford a LOT of problems, but the following year they went back to the original rings and the major oil consumption issues went away.
I doubt I’d ever buy a full size pickup again, but if I did it would either be the F150 with the 302 or the Tundra.
We’re currently on our 4th Ranger. They’ve proven to be durable small pickups…, well at least the 2011 and older.
Our 11 XLT super cab 4WD is the perfect size for us. It’s mainly used for work around our property.
Even though it’s 12 years old it has only 36K miles and still looks showroom new.
I change the oil every 6 months, (we drive only about 3K miles a year, so the oil is changed about every 1,500 miles).
I use Kirkland full synthetic oil in the winter because it flows quicker in cold weather and in the summer I use Mobile 1 full synthetic.
As in all our vehicles I change the front and rear differential, transfer case and a transmission flush every 30K miles and every 60K miles I have all the belts and hoses changed.
Every 3 years the radiator is back flushed and new antifreeze is added.
The horror stories were from the 4.7 specifically, the other engines were pretty much fine I believe
I got 500k out of my 4.7 sequoia…well it still going
@@ssmart5701 This is specifically for the Dodge trucks
@@cwbusrides oh! I’m not a dodge/mopar fan ... unless it’s 1972 on back. It’s a shame, damn good looking trucks
@@ssmart5701 Glad your Sequoia's still going
I owned a Dodge Ram 1500 with 4.7. It was the second biggest piece of crap I ever owned.
All the horror stories about the engine are true, from the major electrolysis issues that resulted in premature head gasket failure (and the dreaded “sludge” issue, which was more from Oil/coolant contamination than from inadequate oiling) to failure of the valve train.
The worst part was that Daimler/Chrysler (which was in control of Dodge at the time) totally stiffed customers by refusing to honor warranty replacements which resulted in a class-action lawsuit. The problem here was that Cerberus bought out the company during the lawsuit and took a “we had nothing to do with this response” and beat the court case.
The third truck is literally a Ford ranger with a Mazda badge
I own a 1994 Mazda B4000 4x4 with5-speed transmission with only 138K miles on it. I was told that it is really just a Ford Ranger. Is that true?
Add 5k to every truck in my town. Those tundra go for 10-15k or at least asking price.
How aboute i fuck up Brads perfect day a new ranger wildpack with 160k mils wil break down 4 times its blown brakes the timing belt and some others its a 22 btw
The Mitsubishi Mighty Max? Which I think is called the Mitsubishi L200 in Europe. Watching you in Ireland.
In Africa for us it's the Hilux, ford and Mitsubishi L200
The last two Ram generations are very reliable.
Isn't the mazda just a rebadged ranger?
Or is the ranger a rebadged Mazda like firs did with many of thier other cars when ford owned 30% of Mazda 😳 before sellling thier interest. Mazdas always been very underrated and reliable. A small pick up not listed is the NissN D2000 they were like tanks simply couldn’t kill them very durable
Built TERRIBLY!!!! A recall in 2007 almost killed me
You couldn't GIVE me a Ford!
CHEVY TILL I DIE👍
2013 f150 is the best
The Toyota HiLux?
Dude recommended the 5.4 trition😂😂😂
Nissan Titan and Toyota Hilux are on the phone, they really want to speak with you
fun fact: the Mitsubishi Might Max a.k.a L200 on the Japanese market
Said built Ford tough and I quit watching. MY ENTIRE FAMILY USED TO OWN FORD. They would buy brand new, and every single one of them blew a transmission or had severe engine problems and don't even get me started on the death wobble. The only ford bought new that's still currently in the family is my cousins 2019 Ford escape. Because it's the only one that hasn't had detrimental amounts of problems. The rest of the family has made the switch to toyota, back in 2020 after my uncle finally had enough and convincedthe ENTIRE family to switch to something else, as he bought a 2019 ecoboost f150 and it blew the engine at 83K miles. All 12 of the toyota trucks and suvs are still on the road, and the only thing done was maintenance such as fluid changes. 3 years and not a one of them has had a single issue, that's reliability.
b2000 sound tempting
save your pennies and snag a b2300, more power and more available
5.0 coyote F150, the body might be falling apart but that thing will run toll thy kingdom come.
finance a f150 for 9 years for $59 a month
3:31 A vid from from chris fix
You basically mentioned all trucks you can possibly find. So are you saying they all are reliable? I doubt it
5.0 F150
Mid 2000's Ranger
1950's to 1970 V8 ...
With no Pre-Collision distracting beeping and flashing Red and Yellow dashboard. With steering assisted fighting me going up a roundabout on to freeway on-ramp.
👦👍🚩🏎🏁
Not anything with Turbos. ( EcoTragic )
What about turbo diesels?
@B C Diesels Sure though, starting January 1, 2023 and Diesel ⛽️ truck can't be registered if it is older than 2010. 👦👍🏎🏁🚩
@@ChasingDifferentAdventures is that only California?
@B C Diesels Yes, only in California, businesses (private owned) sold 80% (20 trucks for example) of fleets to buy 2 to 5 replacements, or 1 new one. Democrat's like destroying economy, I'm inflation went up 12%.👦👍🏎🏁🚩
@@ChasingDifferentAdventures tell the Democrats to “watch the birdie!”
4L v6 hilux
Isn’t the Mazda B just a re-badged Ranger? Lol Fords most reliable small truck even better than the new Maverick!
LOL There's nothing "cheap" about an F-150. A 2010 XLT 4X4 is selling today for $25,000. Even a 2010 Ranger is being listed for $15,000 and more.
I immediately stop watching your video once you put the words reliable and durable next to each other regarding ford vehicles
there is no rams
Say you dont know anything about the trucks on the list without saying you don't
Let me educate some people who want an F150
The earliest trucks used a 4.9i6 (5.0 5.8) V8
The 4.9 and 5.0 and 5.8 got phased out in 1996
The next line of Engines were part of the new triton family that includes the
(4.2 v6) (4.6 v8) (5.4 2v v8)
These all were used in the 1997 f150
The 4.2 v6 ran from 1997 to 2008
The 4.6 ran from 1997 to 2014
The 5.4 2v ran from 1997 to 2003
These all are good engines and only the 5.4 2v had some issues with the spark plugs that ford had already fixed and has a fix
The ones not to buy are these
3.7 cyclone v6
5.4 3v v8
3.5 Ecoboost v6
Although i know the 3.5 and 3.7 have a horrible water pump that can cost up to 1800 dollars to replace
The 5.4 3v is horrible and if it fails it can cost you over 7,000 in a new factory replacement engine
The ones to buy in the f150 are these
4.9 i6
5.0 sohc v8
5.0 4 cam 32v
5.4 2v (do research)
5.8 sohc
6.2 v8
F150 Triton models were crap
Not every triton was crap
There were bad tritons and good tritons
Ford used the 4.6 triton in almost everything from the crown vic to f150
The 5.4 2V was just fine and were pretty solid trucks and since then ford has fixed the issues with the sparkplugs
The bad tritons were the 5.4 3V they were absolutely terrible to the point you gotta replace your engine which is 7,000
The 6.8 im not that familiar with but it seems like they weren't that bad
Any ford with the 5.4 3V or 6.0 power stroke and 6.4 power stroke are all avoided and use the terms bulletproof
@@Averagegamer673 You know much more about trucks than I do. I just had heard that some F150s were bad.
@@HiSpeedDrifter eh the guy on here is a moron and likes to hype up trash cans and make children think that spending 5,000 on a 25 year old truck is smart
If your looking for a good used f150
Buy a 1996 xlt f150 with the 5.8 Windsor v8
Its the last small block ford ever made that was fast fun and dependable my dad had a 95 ford Econoline e250 that had 600,000 on the factory drivetrain and its still going strong with our close friends using it to run their business
Prepare yourself for an angry mob of 2nd Gen Ram fanboys raiding the comments section because you didn't put their truck on the list
Tundras aren't cheap.😂
You drunk to much coolaid
Will he reply😢😅
2nd
WHY DOES THIS GUY INSIST ON GETTING HIS FACE RIGHY IN THE CAMERA ALL THE TIME
These are all crap trucks ,who's gonna buy this garbage?
