pickups are if they are not reliable and long-lasting so we dug into icy car study that provided information on the longest lasting trucks to reach 200 000 miles and beyond they based their methodology on 11.8 million pre-owned cars sold in 2020 for each model number of cars with 200 000 miles was mathematically modeled and these six light duty trucks came on top with highest percentage to stay on the road beyond 200 000 miles before we begin if you're new here feel free to subscribe for more contents like this and now let's go number six ford f-150 the ford f-150 has been the best-selling pickup truck in america for 25 years and counting there are a lot of reasons the ford truck has enjoyed that success but at the heart of it reliability has been the feature that puts grins on the faces of their owners and reliability depends heavily on the performance of the piece of machinery that makes the truck run the engine over the past decade ford has introduced four different engines for the f-150 and while all of them performed well some were better performers than others having a dependable engine is one piece of the puzzle but for a truck to withstand many harsh conditions over long run it has to have a durable body frame the f-150 is made from military-grade aluminum and has been tested in off-road races the newer trucks have triple amount of high-strength steel which more than likely increases the pickup safety as well as its longevity as per ic cars two percent of ford f-150 showed over 200 000 miles on the odometer at the time of their sales transaction in 2020 number 5 chevrolet silverado 1500 pickups like the chevrolet silverado are hugely popular because they are durable and can handle abuse for years when you want a long-lasting

severity of the problem and the cost to fix ic cars says an estimated 2.1 percent of silverado 1500s resold in 2020 having registered 200 000 or more miles however real life owners say the silverado trucks can last much longer for instance this chevy silverado is still running after 1.2 million miles surely you will have to spend some money to keep your vehicle running for instance drive belts

comes to reliability nissan trucks distance themselves from the problematic nissan cars and the nissan titan pickup is one of the models built to last from the car maker since its debut in 2004 the

titan number two and gave it an above average reliability score number three toyota tacoma toyota is known to be one of the best vehicle manufacturers consumers like their vehicles because they last long have low maintenance and they hold their resale values in every market toyota's tacoma is the quintessential pickup truck one that's endured over decades of production and millions of units sold the second generation tacoma launched in 2005 are larger and built stronger it has two advantages in terms of its construction the vehicle's body is made from hot stamped ultra high strength steel but at the end of the day reliability boils down to one single component and that's the engine one way to increase the longevity of an engine is keep the temperature down toyota utilized a technique called oil jets to maintain a proper temperature in many of their trucks including the tacoma and toyota uses an independent suspension design along with basic solid rear axle setup on this midsize pickup like most other toyota trucks this has worked great for decades and toyota knows it overly complicated engines suspension designs and electronics might be fun and exciting but they also create the potential for new problems that's the reason toyota keeping the designs and features of their trucks simple less moving parts typically means there are fewer things to fail 2.8 percent of tacomas showed over 200 000 miles on the odometer at the time of their sales transactions in 2020 and this 2008 tacoma is still running after 1.5 million miles before we move on to number two if you

honda's first north american truck first produced for the 2006 model year it was later refreshed a couple of times and then discontinued in 2014 and returned for the 2017 model year the first

tend to use a simpler design and it isn't changed or updated as often they figure out what works and stick with it on that it should be of no surprise to you that another of toyota's pickups makes the

reputation for being indestructible and driving well beyond 200 000 miles an impressive 3.7 percent of toyota tundra showed over 200 000 miles on the odometer at the time of their sales transactions
