Here’s data on which ones are the best as well as how long they are expected to last. ## Reliable new full-size trucks This list from the team over at *[iSeeCars.com]()* created this list and ranked each full-size truck by average list price, expected lifespan in years, price per year and compared to average. They “analyzed the prices of over 3.8 million new cars sold in July – December 2024 and the odometer readings of over 368 million used cars from its [Longest Lasting Cars Study](). The average list price of each model was compared to its expected lifespan (in years) to calculate the list price per year. Low-volume vehicles, sports cars, and vehicles not in production as of the 2024 model year were excluded from further analysis.” ![screenshot 2025 02 19 at 1.48.00 pm copy]() “Full-size pickup trucks remain a popular segment, with enough demand to drive their average new price to over $60,000, and their average price per year to over $5,000,” said *iSeeCars* Executive Analyst Karl Brauer. “These vehicles cover a lot of bases, with near-luxury interiors in higher trim levels and room for the entire family, making them extremely versatile as well as durable.” ## Our take Any long-term vehicle study should be taken with a grain of salt since it is impossible to predict exactly how long a truck should last. With that said, studies like this one are helpful for consumers who are trying to collect as much data as possible before making a decision. This study largely follows the same results from many other studies as well which makes me think this one should be taken more seriously. Also, the life expectancy metric is rather interesting and shows that new trucks are lasting for many years even with the more advanced powertrains and having more technology than ever inside the cabin. ## Structured page information ~~~json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "Article", "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2025/02/most-reliable-new-full-size-trucks-plus-expected-lifespan/#article", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2025/02/most-reliable-new-full-size-trucks-plus-expected-lifespan/" }, "author": { "name": "Tim Esterdahl", "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/#/schema/person/82b06f99329f69a069a5ab6caed18593" }, "headline": "Most reliable new full-size trucks plus expected lifespan", "datePublished": "2025-02-19T21:06:32+00:00", "dateModified": "2026-08-15T21:16:02+00:00", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2025/02/most-reliable-new-full-size-trucks-plus-expected-lifespan/" }, "wordCount": 313, "commentCount": 0, "publisher": { "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/#organization" }, "image": { "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2025/02/most-reliable-new-full-size-trucks-plus-expected-lifespan/#primaryimage" }, "thumbnailUrl": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/2025_toyota_tundra_trd-pro_super-white_073-1500x1000-copy.webp", "keywords": [ "chevy silverado", "ford f-150", "full-size truck", "gmc sierra", "toyota tundra" ], "articleSection": [ "Featured on Home Page", "News", "Reliability Rankings" ], "inLanguage": "en-US", "potentialAction": [ { "@type": "CommentAction", "name": "Comment", "target": [ "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2025/02/most-reliable-new-full-size-trucks-plus-expected-lifespan/#respond" ] } ] }, { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2025/02/most-reliable-new-full-size-trucks-plus-expected-lifespan/", "url": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2025/02/most-reliable-new-full-size-trucks-plus-expected-lifespan/", "name": "Most reliable new full-size trucks plus expected lifespan", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/#website" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2025/02/most-reliable-new-full-size-trucks-plus-expected-lifespan/#primaryimage" }, "image": { "@id": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/2025/02/most-reliable-new-full-size-trucks-plus-expected-lifespan/#primaryimage" }, "thumbnailUrl": "https://pickuptrucktalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/2025_toyota_tundra_trd-pro_super-white_073-1500x1000-copy.webp", "datePublished": "2025-02-19T21:06:32+00:00", "dateModified": "2026-08-15T21:16:02+00:00", "description": "Want to buy one of the most reliable new full-size trucks?
