Trying to decide which to get - between Toyota, Ford, GMC. Toyota

also costs more.
Any ideas out there?
Be a little careful about new diesels. The new ones have a urea system
in them that could leave you stuck on the side of the road. At this
point, the dealer is the only one that can refill the tank. It is
supposed to last quite a while but when it is empty you are done.
In my case, the emissions aren't as clean when it's empty but I can still
drive it.
You can probably get some antibiotic for that.
