If a Toyota, ranked the most reliable car in the world, is problematic according to you, a yoosless Benzedes fanboy, that means that every other car in the world is useless.

Mugu

I can see Porsche is ahead of your favorite Toyota.

Is it not the Porsche Cayenne that is all over mechanic garages in Nigeria?

I also dont get the need for insults.

Why bother?

Nah, if you look well you will see Lexus (Toyota product) on the number one spot. Toyota scored the same points with Porsche so they are both second place (only that Porsche is written first due to alphabetical order).

The ranking makes use of drivers' information from 2020 cars. The Porsches you see in mechanic are not 2020 models so what this ranking definitely means is that Porsche (unlike some other shitbox companies) have improved on their vehicle quality over the years to be on par with Toyota.

The issue is use the right transmission oil or nothing.

Come o!

If drivers information for 2020 is used for the dependability test, I bet you that data derived from such a test will be wrong. Even an Innoson vehicle should be very dependable if it just rolled out of the factory.

So it is either what you are saying is wrong or the research is wrong. I choose to believe you are wrong.

The year on your post says 2019. Does that mean the test was done before all the said brands even released their 2020 model year cars?

Buying Nigeria used...how much is the transmission toks

Lol. African man strikes again. You wish but it doesn't work that way.

First off, many companies have finished selling most of their 2020 cars in 2019, many are selling 2021 models right now. By 2021 many people must have finished driven their 2021 model cars for a complete year and by then they will be able to vote in different studies whether the car was smooth or problematic.

One year is enough to know a car that is problematic. For example I know you aren't aware that Benzedes recalled nearly 1m C300 because they literally set themselves on fire when parked. Brand new cars, some burnt themselves on the same day they were bought.

Less than 100k. I think about 70-90k. Last time I asked, engine and gear is about 230k.

How many 2021 models have you seen on the street?

So if I want to buy a 2020 model of any car, i wont get it because it was sold last year?

So you are telling me, JD did the research with 2020 models sold in 2019, then after 1 yr (2020), drivers were able to rate the dependability of their cars and then JD went back to February, 2019 to publish the article

What about the 2020 cars produced in December 2019, when will the drivers rate the dependability so that JD can add it to their 2019 research?

Are you sure you read the research yourself?

At bolded, how many Nigerians can buy 2018 cars let alone 2021 cars? Of course I'm not talking of Nigerians who buy 20-year-old cars I'm talking about Americans who purchase the vehicles directly not fifth-hand buyers who don't know the history of the cars.

About JD using 2016 models for 2019 ranking, its still accurate because most cars have 3 years warranty. When I was speaking of ranking, I meant car reliability rankings in general not particularly JD. Most of them I know use 2020 cars like Consumer Reports which appears to be the most-widely recognized source in products ranking.

How Does CR Get Its Reliability Information?
Where Is the Data From?
Consumer Reports obtains its reliability data from an Auto Questionnaire that is sent to Consumer Reports members. In all, we received responses on over 420,000 vehicles in our latest survey, detailing 2000 to 2019, and some early introduced 2020 models.

Lets just stop derailing.

Tacoma for portability. You’re not giving up anything either.

conductor259:

Tacoma, Tacoma, Tacoma!

Both are strong, durable and very beautiful when tuned out/pimped just that Tundra is not too portable.

Ok well said... thanks a million

I too have noticed quite a few Porsche Cayennes at repair shops looking abandoned.

Do you know the reason why?

Thanks.

Hello everyone.....

I am having a hard time choosing between 07 tundra (v6) and 08 Tacoma (v6).

Basically I need a pick up truck to move raw materials to my factory, I also need something abit sylish that i can sometime use for my every day run around.


Help me choose base on these factors

1. Durability
2. Maintenance
3. Availability of parts and man power
4. Ruggedity
5. Stylish
6. Resellers value

You need the tundra not the Tacoma. Tow/weight rating is more because you said you're moving raw materials and the ride is better in a tundra as it was also designed to be a people mover so your family will be comfortable in it. The Tacoma cab is small and anyone in the rear will be uncomfortable. Every other factor you mentioned is virtually the same between the two. Used to work for Toyota.

KINGreignn:

It's a body on ladder frame offroad work truck. Not meant for high speeds and sudden evasive maneuvers.

That applies to all SUVs, because of their ground clearance.

Although there are some SUV that are balanced. Eg Rx350, Landcruiser (not Prado), 2nd gen Highlander, Venza and Rav4.

But you see Rx330, first generation Highlander, Tacoma, Hilux, those ones are way too high /narrow for balance.

That is another side of it tho..... that is very true I just say.

This is a very nice advice although he can still buy Tacoma and put hauling cart behind his car when he needs to carry so much.

Thay Tundra still too big for my eyes.

He can but wear and tear will be more on the Tacoma

Tundra will do more work over time, better to get the Tundra

For those buying Innoson, Nigerian built cars, or South African new cars take a look at this video to understand why those who know cars always choose western imported versions
