Tariffs

I don’t think they can, it’s been an issue since launch. Their CVT’s use a crappy belt and any deviation from the maintenance schedule dramatically increases the chances it’ll break…and who buys their cars? Not to stereotype but do you think Altima owners are super strict re: maintenance?
Worst part is their CVT’s aren’t serviceable if they do break. It totals the car due to poor resale.
I had a little Nissan truck extended cab truck in the past, owned it about 8 years. It was a 5 speed 4 banger which was good enough for my purposes, would tow small skiff. But that was 30 years ago. Hard to believe it was that long ago but time flies. Was a great little truck for what I paid for it (bought it at a bank auction) but I have driven the Titan (a rental when my Tundra was in the shop). It was a mammoth gas hog, and I didn't like the way it drove either.
The posters that need to see this have already ran away. As predicted.
Because they absolutely could not see what was happening, not even one percent. They were oblivious and took every single thing. Trump said very literally and did not understand what was going on.
If you're a Tundra driver and think something else is a gas hog, that's saying something.
I get 13mpg on avg in my 2014 Tundra. Only thing I don't like about my truck.
I started buying Bitcoin again after el trumpo got elected and its slowly coming back up. The Sock Lord is buying as much bitcoin etherium and tether as he can afford and suggests you do the same.
I drive a 2018 Tundra TSS…….it’s a running Jessie on the highway and passes everything but a gas station. ⛽️😂😂 13-14 gallon
It’s warmers delight 🫢
This will happen all throughout the Spring and Summer. A constant stream of press conferences celebrating new trade deals.
Constant reminders to @bradleygator @G8trDad3 and anyone with TDS that they were wrong, and Trump was right.
They will hate him even more because of it. But we won't care, cause America will be winning.

We will not see our little snowflakes around here much I guess...they hide like little weenies when things are going great. Such UNAMERICAN people. They want Trump to fail more than they want America to prosper. EVERY ONE of them do.
I’ll never understand this mindset.
I hated Biden but still wanted to see good things for the country.
Assuming import volume remains constant, Trump just tripled the amount of revenue we will collect from UK imports, and the amount US companies will pay to export to the UK is about 60% lower.
This is why we listen to Trump and not bradley.
What was scary is @Mdfgator repeatedly posted those tweets from zero hedge. The shirtless pic is just, well, you know, gay. Just sayin.
That's Tyler Durden from Fight Club (Brad Pitt). Not a random ghey photo.
And it's a good account, somewhat down the middle on economic news and statistics.
Besides, everyone is gay right?
BTW...why weren't YOU calling for a ceasefire in Ukraine?
You never did call for an end to the fighting. No liberal did.
All liberals said in unison is.....Ukraine must win.
Why was that so important?
Ukraine didn't have the manpower to win. Zelensky was literally kidnapping seniors and forcing them to fight. And you wanted THAT to win?
Why? Why was it so important that we keep giving Zelensky billions and force American taxpayers to fund a war he was destined to lose? We needed him to kill a few more Urkanians?
Also...why did the left attack Trump for wanting to END the war? Hell you are still doing it.
Just curious...do you ever take a step back and honestly think about the political logic behind the people you support?
Cause I do, and brother, you are blindly supporting damn evil people doing some damn evil things. So spare me the complaints about Trump's bad behavior when he's the only one wanting to save lives in Ukraine.
He does not support anything. He is against ANYTHING Trump. It’s all that they are capable of. Not smart enough to understand world events
Pretty much true for the media and 75 million Americans.
Bradly MAY be the only lib that comes back here and give credit, which makes me instantly question if he really is a lib, or an establishment republican that we took the party from.
The Golden Age is here.
Now we wait to see what the cope is from the left. @bradleygator don't let us down.
First Off: Buy American and the tariffs don't affect you, and your fellow American workers will thank you. 😎
I'm still driving my loaded to the gills Cab-Plus 2005 GMC Sierra high performance Vortex 6000 with over 210,000 miles on it. (think SS-396 from the old days)
New it got around 18 MPG combined. It's still getting over 16 MPG combined with it's original spark plugs and ZERO engine work ever done on it. I intend to keep driving it until the wheels fall off. It rides like a Cadillac and runs like a squalled dog when I punch it...
First off, these trucks are MUSA. American workers benefit from people buying them.
Secondly, GM vehicles are garbage. I’ve owned several of their trucks and had major issues with every one of them. I also do my own work and can see the quality of materials and parts. There’s a reason Toyota trucks hold their value so well. Only good thing I can say about GM trucks is the older ones are easy to work on. The opposite of Ford.
Our Tundras will be on the road much longer than your truck and with fewer problems along the way.
But part of the reliability is they don’t design their engines and transmissions to run on the ragged edge, which is why their fuel economy is poor.
Edit: and change your damn spark plugs you goof…it takes an hour on that truck if you take your time. It’s not good for the engine internals to run on weak spark.

Be interesting to see what the Stock Market does in the morning.
lol............I get a solid 18 mpg from my 2003 Tundra whether I drive 90 mph or do driving Miss Daisy. I notice no difference so pedal to the metal it is. 😂
First off, MUSA is better than made in Japan, but which corp. and where, does that purchase money go back to?
2nd, my GMC truck, and my other GM vehicles have never had any of the 'problems' that you speak of, starting with the 1953 Buick Roadmaster and going forward. I also used to work on my own vehicles, but not much in the last 20 years or so, I pay others to get greasy now.
My Lay-O-Ded GMC Cab Plus Sierra is already 20+ years old with 210,000+ miles on it, how about your rice burner? 😉
Neither it's engine nor it's transmission have ever needed any work. Batteries, tires, lights and other such 'wear' items need periodic replacements, just like with any other kind of vehicle.
Finally, 3-5 MPG over 20 years and 210,000+ miles adds up to how much gas money? 🧐
The difference might be you NOT doing your own mechanic work.... 🧐 --------------------- 😁
I get 21 on the highway if I keep her under 70.
17-18 if I don’t.
Mixed is closer to 13-14mpg.
2003 was a 3/4 sized truck, the next model is a behemoth with a 5.7L 8-cylinder designed to run a million miles.
I’m not ASE certified or anything but I worked for a shop for some time.
Best thing I learned is what NOT to tackle. Not that I can’t but a mistake could be catastrophic.
2012 Range Rover Sport needed timing chain work? That sh!t went to the shop so fast your head would spin.
I've got nearly 400k miles on mine, and now I might put 15k miles a year on it. I'm gonna keep this ugly sister on the road as long as she keeps having me.
I should add, it's been stolen once and the cops forced them into a controlled wreck back in 2007, it's been on it's side on I95 in after I went to sleep after being sleep deprived after 48 hours on a duck hunting trip around 2008, in other words, my truck has gone through pure hell and several body shops. I luffs my truck!
Whatever it is my higher resale value will make up a ton of the variance. And I could own my truck for longer delaying the purchase of a new one.
And the plants are built here with US labor, all of the workers are US labor, the equipment and maintenance of the robotics are done by US workers…
And there’s a chance your truck was made in Canada, today they make them in Mexico and the US.

I’ve always owned GM trucks (Suburbans) and drove an old 89 F150 for about 6 years (I loved that damn thing).I've got nearly 400k miles on mine, and now I might put 15k miles a year on it. I'm gonna keep this ugly sister on the road as long as she keeps having me.
But after getting stranded 3 times in a year I decided I was old enough for a reliable truck.
I don’t know why I love this Tundra so much, but it has really grown on me. And it needs stuff, the crappy foam steering wheel is cracking and the leather on the driver’s seat needs replacement, headlight is crazing and I’d like to replace the running boards and grille.
But overall the clearcoat is good and it’s only got minor dents and scratches. It cleans up nice.
If you want a product recommendation on something to restore faded plastic let me know.
2014 TRD with 173k. Bought it 2 years ago with 150k for $21k. It books out today at a few thousand more than that.
