Id say our trannys are much more known for failures than F-250/F-350. Especially when you consider how much more power/ and how much more towing those trucks do than our 1/2 ton trucks.

well, i will say i have not done much research, like i previously said... i speaking anecdotally here, just wont ever find myself buying ford over gm based on the close encounters i have had with both. you might be right but can sway my opinion.

I don't care for Ford, but I'd trust their AOD trans over GM's 700R4/4L60.

either way, Ford can suck my ass, dont like the way they look, dont like the way the build em

I like ford quality better than GM. Especally 06 and back. Their interiors blow GM away. Also their quality is just as good if not better than toyota or honda according to both ford commercials and consumer reports.

so, lemme get this straight.... you guys are ok with fords tranny over the Alison?

If the allison was in our tahoe. This would be a valid arguement. But to be the devils advocate here. Fords standard tranny is a lot more durable than our standard tranny (4l60E) But our vortec is a better suv motor. So its really a toss. I have had engines blow with ford, and trannys blow with chevy, and everything blow with dodge.

yea definitely chevy quality is alot better than ford, tahoes do have a little bit of tranny problems but that is one of very few problems, i know alot of people with fords and the vehicles are just junk, ive even worked on them alot and again all i can say when im working on them is just a bunch of junk
