Chose your truck: Ford, Chevy, Dodge or Toyota
Some friends and I were having this discussion recently. Everyone seemed to be pretty loyal to thier truck. I was not raised having been loyal to any particular auto maker. I have been lucky enough to own one of each of Ford, Chevy and Dodge. By far, all things considered, my 2007 Ford F150 FX4 has been the best truck I've ever owned. Whats your pick?

Depends on size and what for.
If it's post 72 and from Dodge, I rather walk. |
Re: Chose your truck: Ford, Chevy, Dodge or Toyota
I would have selected Honda Ridgeline but it wasn't an option. I've owned 2 F-150's and I have a 93 Ranger with 183,000 miles on it and it runs like a top.:2

Well, the only one I've owned is my 2006 Dodge Ram. I wasn't beholden to any truck at the time but the deal on the Dodge was too good to pass, quad cab, hemi, decent set of options for $19999. I must say I love the thing.

Definitely a Ford guy. I drive a 2005 FX4 SCrew and I love it.

Re: Chose your truck: Ford, Chevy, Dodge or Toyota
I like the older Fords and Chevys (late 70's-early 2000's)
My dream truck would be like a 77 C-10 |

Chevy for me.
My first truck was a '99 Ford Ranger, I liked it a lot. But after watching how fast it went down hill along with my dads '01 F-150 I decided to try Chevy. I bought an '05 1500 Silverado that I started to prerunner. Had a mid-travel kit in the front, but one day I swung by the Chevy dealer just for kicks and saw my current truck. I traded in that Silverado for my current '01 CC LB 2500hd Silverado. What can I say I'm a sucker for diesels. The Chevys have been my loyalty, but who knows I may switch to a prerunnered 05+ F150 next year. I kinda miss gas now. The one I have always stayed away from was Dodge. Not because they're not good trucks or anything, just because I've never been a fan of their front end style. Also my buddy has one and I jsut can't get use to their driving. |

Re: Chose your truck: Ford, Chevy, Dodge or Toyota
I have a 2001 silverado, and a 2002 F-250. The 01 silverado is the only vehicle I have ever owned that wasn't a ford and it will probably be the last. I have has some problems with it, but all things considered it has been a good truck, but I am just a Ford guy at heart. My next truck is definitely going to be a 4X4 F-250 Power Stroke.

I voted for Dodge though. I've never been let down by one of my 3/4 ton or 1 Ton Dodges. Especially with the Cummins. The new Dodge commercials DRIVE ME NUTS though. As do Chevy's. |

I had a 77 3/4ton GMC - short bed - 4 barrel with headers, side pipes without the bullet mufflers in them. Posi-track - sun roof - custom tuck and roll interior with bucket seats. Pioneer head unit - 200 amp with 4 6x9 Jenson tri's stuck in that little interior - :D Custom paint, originally had murals on the hood, rear and sides - but had it repainted about 81. Complete paint, door jambs, bed, engine compartment, etc. Engine was mostly brushed aluminum over with blue and red braided hose. To many engine parts to mention. Micky Thompson Weather Vane rims with Goodyears. Man I loved that truck. In 1985 it had a fuel line leak at the 40 micron filter - caught fire and burned up. That was in Feb. ***** was that I had dropped my "custom" insurance in Jan. Insurance adjuster almost cried with me - he gave me full blue book value which was the best he could do. I have the fire pictures around here somewhere - And on edit - Oh yeah - nothing but Fords since that GMC. Okay - one more edit - forgot about the 85 Dodge 1/2 ton. After that a few Ford Vans until 2000. Last three trucks: 00 F150 4x4 - 01 F350 Powerstroke Dually Crew Cab - 04 F350 Powerstroke Short Bed, Crew Cab - King Ranch. Ron |
