Recommendations for trucks
Just wanted to ask those here who own trucks what Trucks would you recommend me getting? I'm thinking of trading in my SUV next month I really like the Nissan Titan but I'm open to others any ideas on this question? Strictly for the truck drivers but all can answer, thanks.

I have a gmc and I love it. Gets good gas milage, plenty of power, and a comfortable ride. Mine is pretty loaded so it has some nice features. A lot of it depends on what you plan to do with your truck. I REALLY use a truck. I'm pulling trailers at least twice a week, off road frequently, and I almost always have stuff in the bed. From what I've heard from friends that have them, the Nissan & Toyota trucks have pretty good power, but really suffer on gas milage. I've heard 11 mpg is average on the Toyota.

Toyota and Nissan trucks are great. Easily go 100,000 with little to no fuss. BUT when they do break down they do it in epic style that will either cost you major $$$ or if you're a DIY kinda guy have you under the hood cursing the sadistic, crazed, engineer that designed it.

Ford Rapture. Not much changing from the 2017 to 2018 though. Tailgate and some radio stuff on the inside.

The Toyota Tundra is a monster. The 1/2 ton is almost a 3/4 ton truck. Lots of power and towing ability but as was stated earlier, it does burn a lot of gas.
You just can't get one without the other.
The GM Sierra and Silverado both give sweet rides like a car almost.
Ford makes a good looking truck and I do like the Raptor's body style. It's a heavy duty piece of machinery.
I like the look of the Nissan Titan.
Shit, I don't know, I own a GMC but I think I want one of each...

I appreciate all the replies the Nissan Titan right now is first on my list mainly because of the way it looks lol but I do like the Ford raptor, GMC Sierra(Denali), and the Dodge Ram I'm probably going to trade in my SUV at the end of October early November so I still have time to think on it again thanks again for all the replies. This will be my first truck so I was just getting as many opinions as I could.

The rapture takes place atop a blancket in the truck bed, under a starlit sky.

It was relevant Tara. No one was making fun of you. Your spelling error was significant in this case.
I personally am a Ram fan. Owned a 1500, 15 years old and still ran strong. Own a 2500 Diesel now. I am a rim fan too.

Tara, real trucks don't have sparkplugs girlfriend.
2016 Volvo 780, D13, Autoshift, for those long road trips where you can really relax. I might give you ride someday. This is by far the safest truck on the road. And those in disbelief, well I beg to differ.

If you're looking to roll beyond 100K/200K miles, go Toyota. Also, trade in stays considerable higher with the Toyota. Tacoma will do anything you need (towing capacity/size/etc) and the resale value is outstanding.

As a guy that’s been driving trucks my whole life......It really depends on what you plan to do with the truck. And how long you plan to keep it. I drive a F250 4wd Diesel. And am looking to maybe trade for a GMC 3500 Denali Diesel.
But I use my trucks......hauling, pulling trailers etc. And diesels, while they last longer. Are expensive to keep up.
Rams and Fords are nice, but the GMC and Chevrolet trucks ride better. In the diesel, Ram has the best drivetrain. With the Cummins motor, and Aisin transmission. The ford King Ranch is a very nice truck also.
I have never owned a Raptor. Or Toyota or Nissan. So I can’t help you there.
