Toughest Truck
 
I was watching the American Top Gear (Love that show) and they were searching for the worlds toughest truck. The hosts bought some trucks and took them to Alaska to put them to the test. There was an 96' Dodge ram, an 80' Chevy c10 step side, and an 72' ford f250. And the Chevy held out. I truly believe it was set up because my opinion is..... DODGE IS THE BEST!!!! I know the dodge hasn't always had the best sells but they are pretty tough trucks. So, everybody has an opinion and I want to hear it so, Yall tell me what you think is the toughest truck.

well, u are close. it was a 83 chevy k10 stepside, and a 76 f250

the ford broke due to severe right foot. he didnt need to be hammering it that hard to get threw all that.


and out of all of them, i say the toyota won. it never broke and didnt get stuck. also had a SFA and sounded like a SBC under the hood.

I thought it was funny when the guy that bought the chey was told it had a diesel,but it had a gasser in it.:w2:

i say all of them are tough trucks if u know what ur doing. you cant hammer on it the way they did and expect it to hold up.

I was some-what rooting for the Toyota because I'm an owner of a "over-the-water" truck and they are pretty good trucks.

I'll agree all 4 trucks are good vehicles but i was disgusted by the general lack of off road driving the skill. In the UK version when the vehicles break the hosts at least try to fix their vehicles but in this episode the hosts pretty much threw their hands in the air and said "trucks dead get in the yota." I'm pretty sure i could have taken my first gen and made it to that glacier even in its present condition(which isn't geat but improving) i'll admit it was entertaining to watch but not very satisfying at the end for truck lovers

i had a 79, 80 and 82 chevy. the 82 i had for years. it was a tough truck. i sold it after i bought my 91.5 cummins in 99. my 08 will never be the truck my 91.5 is.

The American top gear suck big monkey b@!!s compared the the UK show.

The U.K top gear is nice. I like the American one though because it just hits close to home and covers issues around America. I like to watch stuff bout' my country. Everybody has an opinion..........
