I didn't really like the old ones (I don't like SUV's period), but they looked a hell of a lot better than the new ones.

Silverados because everyone in my town who has one talks shit on fords but then you see them having the same problems with their silverados, and then i realize both F150s and silverados have problems but the F150 drivers here neglect their trucks while the silverado drivers take care of their trucks, but the failure rate between the two is the same, with the silverado guys in denial about it.

Re: Opinions: Most overrated Cars/trucks
Toyotas, Hondas and GM.
They are overrated crappy quality cars. The camaro ZL1 got embarrassed by the 2013 Shelby GT500 at the 2012 LA auto show which was supposed to be the ZL1's unveiling party. That proved that the camaro is overrated.
And those damn wanna be tree-hugging Prius owners constantly flaunting how "environmentally friendly" they are being by having the Prius. Never mind the fact that they gut the earth to get the minerals needed to make the batteries .

Re: Opinions: Most overrated Cars/trucks
Jeeps are way to far overrated. And if you ask me, they really fudged up by turning the Cherokee into a pussy ass HUGE SUV. similar to a Buick SUV now. Ew. Known as the "Off Road" vehicle..after you've thrown in solid axels, 35's, suspension, winches..etc etc.
H2's are a solid truck and come ready to wheel. But I'm not arguing this on a Ranger forum :P as I am the one who's Dad owns a Hummer H2, and we wheel with them all the time(H1's, H2's, and 3's). H3's are pure GM and suck IMO. H2's are not, they are AM General(the peeps who built the H1s) but sold/marketed by GM. Difference there.

Ranger.
Not even kidding. Is it a car? No. Does it have the capability of a full size truck? No.
Then why does it exist?

From working in a shop I learned a few things... 1) range/land rovers are garbage-parts are expensive, they drive like trash IMO and they are not economical in any way.
2) All BMW have their down falls. I've driven way too many 04+ bmws throwing CEL left and right and sensors I don't even know how to pronounce.
3) overall I can say the most over rated vehicle on the market today are these cheap Toyota cars, I've driven them all, the only plus side to the entire line up Is the Avalon and while it's quiet on the inside I remember it's got the same lousy, weak, depressing, gutless Toyota motor that the Camry does. The exterior of these cars are plastic and the interiors are bland an unappealing IMO. Performance is something of the past in Toyota vehicle, or was there ever performance? TRD really needs to step up the "development" from personal experience I have seen none, felt none, and see no change coming.
----------
And please don't get me started on these new Chevy Cruze...
