    Boy, are you gonna be surprised......

    My 07 was assembled in Mexico. The exhaust pipe had writing, made in Mexico. Shipping was from that location.

    I´d hate to buy a toyota but the Working man gets my sympathy here too... In fact used to have as a beater a 84 SS Elky ( Made in Texas)... but would´ve be hard pressed even today to buy a 1985... (Hecho en Mexico)

    You might consider a Superduty Ford. Everyone of them is built in Louisville KY and the Powerstroke engine is built by Navistar in Indianapolis.:biggrin_255:

    Unless you like buying injectors,turbos and a few other high priced parts stay away from the '03-'07 6.0....TOTAL P.O.S, stick with the 7.3 after '99 where mostly you can get away with cam sensors and with this crappy fuel,fuel filters..94-97 powerjokes be prepared for cam sensors,vss sensors,with autos you can add psom modules ($800 + for psom from ford)and the occasional starter. If you want to pull serious weight get ready to puke auto trannys and clutches,slave cylinders in manuals like you own stock in the company.The 6.4 I don't have a clue about.All of the trucks on the market today are EXCELLENT if you intend to put 50 thousand easy miles on them and trade for another new one.I can't do that.

    The 6.4 really like diesel. It gets 12 empty and maybe 9 loaded.

    This is from some of the drivers who own one.
