You evidently didn't understand his opening sentence. He is wanting to buy a TRUCK!

I assume this is in jest- each company makes good stuff. It's like asking which is better - coke or pepsi; McDonald's or Wendy's; Mac or PC; iPhone or Android.

You gotta decide what's best for you.

Traveling down I-75 in Kentucky around London exit I saw a F150 with a TT around 35' behind it. He had a pretty good sized bow rider pleasure boat on the back of the camper. Yes on the trailers bumper. Had to be around 70' long with all that. Only wish I could of got a picture.

I've always owned a Chevy, I bought a 2011 F-250 diesel and I will never own another Chevy. We have been completely satisfied with the F-250. Handling and comfort is unsurpassed.

I didn't say Chevy, I just was implying a truck, either Ford or Chevy, the op didn't even mention a Ruined Another Motor. That's just the insertion of a senile old man from Texas. That's why they(Ruined Another Motor) rattle so bad is to warn folks to stand clear before they blow!

Checked my driveway.....Hmmmmm, Chevy is missing.....there is a RAM there now. Been a life-long Chevy guy. None of my 2 previous trucks (91 2500 & 02 1500HD) ever saw the inside of a dealer shop. The 11 RAM 2500 CTD which I've had for a year has already been in for an O2 based TSB. Hope this isn't a sign of things to come but, time will tell I guess.
