Any truck owners on here? If so, what and why? What don't you like, and what would you consider in its place?
My GT will be paid off soon and I'm getting to a point in life where I am going to want something comfortable and practical and have the GT as the fun car, not a daily.
I think I am pretty set on a full sized truck. I like the Ranger, but don't like the lack of rear seat space and the small-ish bed. However, it is a great truck that has some serious off-road ability in the Tremor or FX4 package and a great powertrain.
I'm a Ford guy through and through, so I am gravitating toward the F-150 versus anything else. I do think RAM has the nicest interiors and ride super nice, but lack in the drivetrain options. The new Chevy trucks are love/hate and I'd like to check one out, but have a feeling I'd end up back at Ford.
Does anyone have experience with the 2.7, 3.5 or truck 5.0? I know they are all capable - thinking long-term, I want something that can haul so that would point me more toward the 3.5 or 5.0. Any input on the 6 vs 10 speed debate?
Interested in everyone's experiences/suggestions!
