skierbri10:I have seen the full size japanese trucks so torn apart in accidents that I wonder how they can pass crash tests. Though the big Dodges I have seen fair very good in accidents. So I cannot give any recommendation other than Dodge and Chevys.
Well, the folks at the IIHS have a much different view. They gave the 2006 Toyota Tundra (pretty much the same since its introduction) and the 2006 Nissan Titan a "Good" for frontal crash and "Acceptable" for rear crash safety. OTOH the GM trucks got a "Marginal" and "Poor" respectively.
While the 2006 Ford and Dodge trucks got good ratings, their previous models didn't.
