Cool

Here is my 2 cents

Tundra: Best resale value by far due to Toyota reliability and quality. Costs more upfront in the initial purchase but will likely save you a lot more in the long run if you plan to keep the truck for a while. Also a Tundra is an absolute beast when it comes to towing as it has 4:30 rear end gear ratio. Hence the poor fuel economy with the 5.7L engine. Hands down an extremely capable tow vehicle.

Biggest downside in my opinion is lack of bells and whistles compared to the big 3 domestics. The poor fuel economy is a trade off I was willing to take for the reliability and cheaper overall repair costs.

Ford makes some nice trucks and I've heard great things about the eco-boost. I can't comment as I don't own one. But check out the resale value of a 5yr old eco-boost vs the same age Tundra, it will shock you.
