    It’s a close race between these three midsizers. Which are you picking for your garage? Let us know in the comments below!

    If you have one that's reliable and paid off - keep it...
  • @deancm3759
    Nissan Frontier! V6 engine normally aspirated!
  • @dutchstorm7824
    Emme, you just get better every year. Your insights are always the best!
  • @richkestrel7416
    Nice job Emme! I would have liked to see the Nissan Frontier in this comparison...
  • @sanji_alvarez
    I was originally suppose to get the 2024 Tacoma. Instead got a 2024 Colorado Trail Boss. I like it.
  • @mholmes9262
    Never thought the day would come when I'd have to admit a Chevy had a better interior than anything else.
  • @commbubba1990
    the rear back seat lift and secure via a strap/button was a huge fail for toyota. atleast ford's works correctly.

    Emme you are the Queen of vehicle reviews & off-roading. Top notch quality review & presentation as always. I have watched every one of your videos since your TFL Car days, even if I don't care about the subject material. You're awesome! Keep up the great work. Thank you!
  • @dmegahan
    If ford comes out and reliability is on the higher end, they will be number 2 and maybe eventually back to number 1 in this segment.
  • @davemassoth
    What a great video!!! I am a ford f150 guy but have been thinking about the Colorado trail boss. This video provides great insight and reinforces some of my thoughts. Thank you!

    Bought the Colorado trail boss. $42,500 with the 360 camera, remote start, adaptive cruise, factory bed liner, blind spot monitoring, trailer brake control and 7700 tow capacity. A comparable XLT Ranger is about $4k more and I like the appearance of the trail boss with the factory lift more than the fx4 Ranger. Plus you’ve got more power and towing. Yeah it’s a ton of money for a mid size truck but beats paying the Toyota tax for a taco that was made in Mexico.
  • @hwirtwirt4500
    Very close competition, all three are really nice trucks. My preference would be the Ranger equipped with the V6 twin turbo engine.
  • @joecharmley
    Ford Ranger is probably Best Buy at decent price . Visibility is important
  • @aidenarkham
    I'd probably get the Nissan Frontier because its the only one with a naturally asperated V6
