Especially if your looking at new vehicles, GM is having major issues with lifter failure big reason why they changed the dexos criteria. All manufactures have their problems Toyota included but the cost of ownership on a GM vs Toyota will be double by 100,000 miles.

I'm planning on keeping it until 200k.  With current mileage it's worth around 30k, which is 8 grand less than I paid for it.  I can recommend one.

Of the big 5 (GM, Ford, Toyota, Nissan, Ram) I would skip the Nissan or Ram based on experience.  I'd also go gas over diesel.

Good luck!

Daily drivers absolutely need to avoid diesel there's no need for it if your not hauling every day.

He plans on towing [BLEEP].  Still recommend the Tacoma?

Rhetorical question.
