When comparing the Toyota Tacoma Limited and the Ford Ranger Lariat (both under $40k), I feel like the Ranger has more creature comforts than the Tacoma, but the Tacoma has better reliability. What does CE think?

Toyota no contest.

Why though? I've read reviews where the power train on the Ranger is incredible.

It depends on what you want.

But my 60 year old great uncle was converted from a life long Ford guy to a Toyota guy because of the Tacoma he bought.

ranger just for the nostalgia.


Last I heard the Ranger isn't even a compact anymore and is now a mid range so I don't know where the nostalgia would come from.

just something brand loyalists say.



I don't have any loyalty to any vehicle brand.

I just know as an educated and experienced person that Ford sucks ass. They are the embodiment of the American megacorporation that cuts corners and sacrifices quality and doesn't pass any of the savings on to consumers.

I vote against Ford since it only comes with a turbo 4.

lol its called capitalism? any mass produced car brand will sacrifice quality in order to maximize profits. if you think ford is the only brand that does this youre really naive

also these arent luxury cars, ford makes vehicles for the blue collar folk off an assembly line lol. theyre not focused on quality, they will cut corners, you will see a lot of plastic in the interior. these cars need to be affordable for the common man. youre complaining about the most kindergarten stuff.

They're especially so. A 6 year old could have picked that up from my statement.

Personally I'd go Colorado >= Tacoma >> Ranger

Super dislike how the new Ranger looks. Also only reason I got a Silverado over a Colorado is because it was during truck month and the prices were practically the same.

So I want a pickup truck because they're generally bigger than a mid-size SUV at similar costs, have more utility with them (can haul more), and hold their value more over time. I will not use the truck like a contractor or for stereotypical "truck" use.

After watching that video, I wouldn't buy a Ranger atm. Didn't realize this is just a localization of an older model from 2012. Either wait to get the newer Ranger in like 2 years or get something else IMO.

Agreed. Talked with the missus and we think we'll wait until 2020 Ranger or see what Toyota does to be competitive with the Ranger. Because except for the history of the Tacoma, there seems to be nothing better about it vs the Ranger.
