So I'm in the car business in the real world. My opinion is the Toyota's will hang on very well if they discontinue them...supply will be gone but demand will remain.

The mid 2000's were bad years for the ford gas v8's with some cronic issues and they have suffered in resale as a result. Thus far the Eco-boost have been very well received...mileage empty is really good and about average with a large boat in tow. Front ends historicly are a weak point.

The Fords will feel truckier and IMO are the heaviest duty most truck like of the half tons out there. Less likely to rattle out 200K without issues than the Tundra but quite a bit lower priced to start. Probably the best if you are beating the crap out of it with heavy loads regularly.

Me I'm a GM guy, hold up really well in both resale and mechanicals....and we touch a lot of trucks in our world.

Its all apples and oranges when you talk vehicles...
