Neither ford or toy have the high ground regards which is more reliable but the fight of unit sales some people stand by which is better.
It’s all through cycles depending the model but 4x4 companies certainly knows where the strong and weak points are from regular and off-road use.

Exactly, Toyota will drop the 3.3 into it once the novelty has worn off the Ranger and they've experienced the Ford 'they all do that' customer service and they'll all go running back.
This idea that the Japs got caught off gaurd is laughable to be honest but let the PR machine have its moment.
Lets not forget, Toyota play in many segments and in the past few years have brought many new products to market whilst others have canned their efforts, im sure the 300 series with upto $160k price tag that they cant keep up demand for will soften the Hilux blow.
Its like a relay race, one team is applauding a fast leg whilst the other is on top of the dias.
