Well in the case that the tundra has better resale, why not buy a year old gm/ford for 1/3 the price of a year old tundra? Then what truck is the better deal? If I can buy 2 almost new gm/fords or one new tundra…lets see here…wait for it…wait…i’ll pay more for the Tundra ? umm hell no…and if you say reliability…for the price difference even if i blow my engine i can rebuild my 5.3 and throw down over 400hp and still have less into it then a tundra…i almost baught a dodge ram actually…they had a 06 reg. cab. short bed hemi loaded 4x4 auto for 16.5K brand new! beat that…u can’t even buy a mini truck for that price!

Finally a reasonable argument in favor of domestic trucks. Sort of, kind of exaggerated, but your heart’s in the right place. The idea is there. They depreciate faster because they’re lower quality than, say, a Tundra or a Titan. They’re a bit less reliable. But this also means you can get screaming deals on used ones, or even new ones.
