Personally, I'm a Chevy girl, then Ford. However, the Nissans and Toyotas have caught my attention recently. Not only do they have fairly excellent track records (with the exception of 1-2 models), the parts are much cheaper to replace if need-be, and, from what I've heard, they're supposed to bring more jobs to the US than the US companies.

I don't believe that, and if it's true, it's even a bigger shame.

congrats on the new to you truck. Take it from someone who has three kids in the back- no eating or drinking no matter how clean they promise to be! We just got a new Chevy Impala ourselves, and I love it. The only problem is I am used to a minivan -my transmission went last month- so it will take some getting used to not having all that room. I loved how my nephew and sister-in-law used to be able to go places with us and we could just take the one vehicle, I will miss that. We mainly got the Impala for hubby to drive to work because he has a long commute. For now though he will continue to drive our 12 year old Chevy Lumina that has 170,000 miles on it. We bought it brand new, never had any problems and my husband says he will drive it until it dies on him.
