Those guys buying all those Toyota and Nissan trucks really bug me. That's been the only thing keeping GM/Ford/Chrysler alive. Every foreign truck comes right out of an American family's pocket. I don't care how good people say they are. I guess I'm just old fashioned.
I'm glad you have had good luck with your Chevy pickup, I've always liked the body style and interior of the Chevy... along with the engines and transmissions.

FWIW, Toyota and other so-called "foreign" manufacturers are building new plants in the U.S. while other so-called "American" brands are laying off workers and closing down plants. That is not to say that sometime in the future other manufacturers will be doing the same, but for now this is what I've noticed.
