Another great thing it that the 2016 Toyota Tacoma comes standard with Bluetooth and child anchor seats. This may not be your primary vehicle for getting the kids around, but if you need to, it sure is nice to have it be effortless and safe.
The 2016 Ford F150 has incorporated a number of changes. The most significant being a move away from steel and towards more aluminum in the body. The benefits of this seem to be lighter weight and higher miles per gallon. One potential drawback is the toughness of the aluminum, it will dent and fixing it isn’t always a low-cost proposition. Well, not as low as repairing steel body panels.
