Reviews SummaryThe full-size truck segment is among the most competitive in the whole car market. These big, utilitarian vehicles need to be capable of towing, hauling, and other “truck” duties. But full-size trucks have evolved through the years to be more comfortable for daily commuting, road trips, and many of the other tasks that were once the sole domain of minivans and station wagons. No more apparent is this dual personality than in the 2008 Ford F-150. The eleventh generation of the F-150 arrived for the 2004 model year and has been carried over to the 2007 model year, gaining additional features and trims along the way. The F-150 may not be the most powerful truck available, but it is an approachable, useful truck that puts as much priority on the commute as it does on the worksite. | |
Reviews SummaryThe 2006 Jeep Commander fills a missing piece to the off-road brand’s lineup. The big 3-row SUV has imposing styling, available V8 engines, and seating for up to 7 passengers. It slots above other mid-size SUVs like the Ford Explorer but under full-size SUVs like the Expedition. Compared to these vehicles, the Commander has terrific off-road ability but lacks cabin quality, cabin space, and towing capability. | |
