I'm currently without a truck.   :'(  My last one was a 2000 ford F150 that I drove for 9 years without any issues.  Just before the 200,000 mile mark the tranny went.  We donated it to the kidney cars and took a tax writeoff.  Probably should have gotten it fixed, but that truck didn't owe me a thing.  In another year we'll be in the market for another truck.  It'll most likely be a Ford as long as we can find one in our price range.

Man, I miss my truck.  :'(

A friend of mine is a diehard ford guy. He went to go buy a new F250 loaded ad the salesman told him he wouldn't negotiate the price. He ended up getting a new loaded Chevy for almost 10k less and likes it a lot. The selectable cylinder usage doesn't hurt with gas prices either.

No way I could afford a brand new truck.  I've never owned a brand new vehicle before.  A nice used one in good condition for around 10 to 15 k would be a nice find.

Sounds we're in the same boat, I just decided to keep my 1997 silverado instead up upgrading. I know the truck well and it's been in the family sinnce it was new. If you're in the area I can give you. My friends numbers, he's a great guy that doesn't BS and can pretty much order a used truck to fit your preference.

That's tempting!  But I've had some VERY bad luck with Chevy trucks in the past.  I'd like to try and stay with Ford.

When I went to see.   Him he had fords dodge and toyota on the lot, just not as many as the chevys. He can order a used car from any chevy dealership, or call you when someone trades in one you're looking for.

That sounds cool, just what I'm looking for.  When the time comes, I won't be in a rush to get something.  I'd rather have someone looking for what I want than to get stuck buying something I didn't just because I rushed the purchase.
