Well at least you know when your gas pedal is stuck and you crash u still have a decent chance at living. The colorado wasnt made by GM either. It came from Izuzu. And if the other trucks had side airbags they would of did just as good by the looks of it.
@TheBlackeyedpeas1996 Dodge makes REALLY crappy vehicles... as a dodge mechanic (not by choice) they practically fall apart at the seams from lazy American craftsmanship.
@epjb226 I'm just curious, didn't you do your homework before you bought your truck? The Colorado has other faults besides it's side impact tests. It's not reliable, and the engine is rather weak ( the 5 cyl). If more people would do their homework and not buy junk from car manufactures, the manufactures would stop putting junk on the market.
No the toyota is owned by a jap company.The others are american owned.So no its not a american company.And most of the parts are made in japan.The truck is assembled here.
haha my friend drives a canyon told him not to get it, i own a dakota and sadly its not as great as the toyota as far as safety but dodge also hasn't been able to invest money all its productsl like it should. hopefully with them partnering with fiat they'll be able to bolster their line up and push toyota back to where they came from
@CrashJSTest You sir are a fucking idiot. Have fun in your toyota. You have no idea what you are talking about. I cant argue with a guy with no idea on the subject....
@CrashJSTest I will always back up my country.. Its not your country if you do not support it!! And your toyota is probably at fault for the accident considering there throttle sticking and there japs leaders lieing about the problem and hiding it.. Great company... there cars and trucks are just as bad as they are... Obviously toyota isnt safe... there gas pedals stick, there cars are designed and built poorly... they are ugly as shit.. and there saftey ratings and sales have drop drastically.
@CrashJSTest Made here??? Maybe partially true.. But deffinitly not designed by americans or a american company.. All your money goes to a different economy. What do you people not understand about that. ITS A FOREIGN TRUCK.
@KarelYalek could be because the japanese ones are cheaper ... a fully loaded full size american pickup truck is like 55K us dollars .... me personally id drive an f350 just for the fact that if you dont have a vehicle of equal or greater size you aint gonna hurt me
that was a issue with sticky pedel with american built toyota's, the Tacoma not built in america!! Secondly the pedel issue is a thing of the past.......how easy you forget Ford and Chevy catching fire from the ignition and poor engineering yet people still buy them!
@japnikki i just got off work building 18 tacomas here in San Antonio TMMTX 80% of pedal claims researched so far have been driver error not car defects (mats) all other recalls are just basic ass TSIB's that all companies have and YES american company recalls are because of poor engineering and have killed lots of people. agree a lot with you dude....but tacomas are built here in Texas.... yee haw to all bitches whooo! BUY IMPORTS! except Shelby Supercars, Corvettes( except 1981), and Hennessy
that was a issue with american built toyota's, the Tacoma not built in america!! Secondly the pedel issue is a think of the past.......how easy you forget Ford and Chevy catching fire from the ignition and poor engineering yet people still buy them!
While the Toyota may have the best side impact crash test rating I'd rather not own a truck from the car manufacture who's known for sticky accelerators.
It's not that surprising. Compact/midsize trucks are the last thing auto makers mess with, the bread and butter vehicles that sell a lot get improvements every few years.
I drive a Dodge Dakota... I got in a wreck one time, would have been a side impact, but I was able to somewhat get out of the way, ended up being a front-left impact... Good thing it wasn't a side impact.
@MSNIMSM theres dumbass drivers on the road though you can be doing everyhting fine but some asshole runs the red hits you on the side and because you bought the ford you are now dead.
@Jsoto1115 Not really. I have the possibility to walk away just like a Toyota. It depends on the luck of the draw. Ive seen people get killed in volvols and people walk with out a scratch from a Hyundai. Its the luck of the draw.
@Airatius thats at like 30 mph though...if the car goes above lets say 40-45, you are screwed. buy a smart car if you are a daredevil or if u wanna be made fun of.
my car doesn't have airbags at all, if you are worried about the safety of a car, airbags isn't everything, the chassis design, the b pillar, and subframe structure are just some of the things that help make a stable, safe vehicle
The problem with this comparison is that some trucks don't have a full B pillar. The B pillar gives alot more strength to the car. The toyota does have a B pillar, wile some of the other trucks do not. Side air bags or not, when you have rear suicide doors, the safety cage is much more weak.
thats why i dont like most 3 and 4 door trucks. Fords suicide doors dont even make you feel safe, im always paranoid that if im in a wreck in one the doors are gonna fly open.
@JSpencerFan23 But the comparison is still fair, because the companies who decided to build their trucks without the B-pillar are just idiots. The comparison was out of small/midsize trucks, and its unfortunate that some companies slacked with side airbags/B pillar support.
Holy cow, even in the top rated Tacoma that still looked like a rougher impact than I've seen in a lot of cars. I can't tell you how many times I've seen a smaller car t-bone a truck or SUV and flip it on its side or roof.
Yeah if you go to google and tyype F-100 concept you will see news and photos on the upcoming F-100. It looks pretty sweet it's going to be based on the new F-150 frame.
Hmm, I guess it is kinda unfair to not mention the Explorer sport-trac. I actually hardly ever see it mentioned in most pickup comparisons. They didn't compare the Ridgeline either so maybe they just went with the smallest truck from a company and ignored the Ridgeline cuz it's not really a truck?
the sport trac is one of the most under rated cars of the past 10 years. ford screwed themselves on it by never advertising it. its a ridgline style design (ford was first)but much better looking and actually a truck!
Well i didn't read that anywhere and besides the curren't ranger can't be produced until 2012 without a major redesign, because it won't meet the federal side impact safety standards that will be inplace by 2010 which is why the current ranger will die by the end of 2009. Maybe that was the Euro Rangers since they are built diff that will continue to 2012, but the american range won't.
The Tacoma was rated the best out of the rest and yet people still wanna make excuses. Fine...put your family in that Colorado then, mine's going in a Toyota!
@FullSpectrum25 i bougth a tundra have you ever sen the side impact in that truck sturdy as a rock its ony my site if you want to see it if not just search it
@FullSpectrum25 WELL IF AM BUYING A TRUCK IM AM GOING TO SUPPORT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BECAUSE I WANT TO SEE HER THRIVE AGAIN AND NOW YOUR SAYING YOUR GOING TO BUY A CHINK OR JAP MAKE TRUCK PEOPLE BUY A COLORADO DUE TO PEOPLE LIKE CHEVY COES THEY R MADE IN THE USA AND GOD BLESS THEM ALL WHO BUY A AMERICAN MADE TRUCK.
@FullSpectrum25 and thats why our economy is down in ruins,none of the foreign cars made here such as hyundai etc zero of the profit stays in america it goes back overseas ,sure they pay employees,and girve jobs but the job are long shifts,little if any at all benefits,and toyota has been plagued with recalls,and if you still want a toyota buy a used 1995 toyota tacoma,or a toyota land cruiser those cars back then were built like a tank
Well at least you know when your gas pedal is stuck and you crash u still have a decent chance at living. The colorado wasnt made by GM either. It came from Izuzu. And if the other trucks had side airbags they would of did just as good by the looks of it.
