Chose your truck: Ford, Chevy, Dodge or Toyota

I've got a '99 Dodge Dakota with 130,000 miles on it and other than routine maintenance and the fact that the air don't work she’s been a pretty good truck. I am done with Dodge though. The gas mileage on Dodges suck. I average about 13 miles to the gallon since I do a lot of stop and go city driving. My dad’s got a Full size Chevy Silverado and he gets better gas mileage than me. I been wanting a Chevy Silverado but if I got a good deal on an F-150 I would buy it.

I've got a 98 Dakota w/ 178,000mi on it and the only problem I've ever had was a rear wheel speed sensor at 95k mi. I still get 25mpg out of her! (4cyl, 5sp) The radiator has developed a leak this winter, I think one of the plastic tanks has cracked...

I also have an 07 4Runner that I love, so I'm a bit torn.
