> i agree i used 2 love chevy trucks but the last 97 ford f150 i owned had 360000k on it and it had no problems so when i sold it i bought a 2000 f150 4X4 have had it for a year no problems i even use it to plow my driveway in the winter.

agreed. built ford tough!!!  
and yes the engines do outlast the body’s just liked jeeps. mine has been oil sprayed since new. and i would suggest oil spraying any truck you get regardless.

dodges are not cheap right now for some reason. and the early 90’s dodges suck ass.  
chevy and ford seem to be the more reasonably priced trucks right now. jeeps are always expensive. and cramped depending on how tall you are.  
any v8 truck should tow a trailer or a car NO PROBLEM. i would stay away from the smaller trucks. as i get about the same gas mileage as a ranger and s10’s on the high way.  
and i have more towing power.

what is your price range? i found this summer that there is no such thing as a nice cheap truck. 3500 is probably the lowest i would go on a truck.
