i would go chevy before ford.

i bought my ford for about 13k. 2 years and 40k miles later (less than 80k on the truck) and ford was only going to give me 2300 for it on a trade . theiving bastards . all i did was drive it and repair it every other weekend.

its all in how you take care of it. my ford had almost 300k miles on it running strong when i sold it. it had nothing more than a tune up and new alternator on the original 302 engine, tranny was replaced at 250k. 4wd was smooth as could be and i never had any problems with that truck. most of my friends drive chevy's, half of them are decent, the other half are complete pieces of shit but that happens with fords too.

my buddy has a 99 silverado that sees light mud maybe twice a year if that and hes on his 3rd transfer case, 2nd rear diff, 3rd front hub, and countless front axles. not to mention it runs like total shit. another friend with a silverado hasnt had a problem except for the cv axles which is common.

I'm surprised you were able to get out the store with that big "SUCKER" sign affixed to your back.
