I love my 2011 screw and would likely buy another, but if I were buying one today, I would look real closely at the new Tundra. What would you have chosen if not the F-150?

Chevy Camaro or Dodge Challenger, since neither are trucks I would choose the exact same truck I did in the first place.

Sport Trac Adrenalin then the new Sierra. Sierra because I like how it looks compared to the other non Ford 's. This is in a world where if the F150 ceased to exist.

I was liking the tundras when I purchased in 2012 and sort of liked the exterior of the gmc's. both the gm and Toyota have awful interior though.. Never thought about Titan, Chevys are for punk little boys, and rams have coil springs in the back. Shame on any man that desires to have a Honda pilot or an avalanche..

F-150 was the only option I seriously considered.

Just to be sure, I test drove the new '14 Silverado LTZ Z71. I knew I wouldn't buy it because it was so new it would have been $10k more w/out incentives. But I wanted to make sure I wasn't buying an F-150 that was a full generation behind. The test drive confirmed my decision to stick with the F-150. In my opinion the new Silverado is a big, bloated turd. The F-150 Eco feels like a sports car in comparison.

I was seriously considering a Ram Laramie Longhorn Limited. At the time it only had a 5.5ft bed and it was too small, but other than that it was a sweet truck. (until I looked at there crash rating) and was sold on the F150 Max-tow EB King Ranch 6.5bed. But was also on the fence going back to a new SuperDuty.

14 Tundra looks pretty bad ***-though I didn't find the 13's or older to look as appealing
Titan used to be one of the best looking trucks out there but seriously needs to be updated
Dodge-Based upon the may Chrysler products I have rented from Dollar over the years, I believe the build quality of all Chrysler products to be equal to that of a Chinese toy factory. The coolers in the bedrails seem crazy useful, but I'll never waste my time at a Dodge/Chrysler dealership
Chevrolet/GMC- The newest models 14's look pretty impressive, but I have never seen one close up
Tacoma- Smaller, good looking and undeniable reliability. This was once a major contender, but now that I have owned a full size pick-up, it would be extremely difficult to go back.
F-150 is still at the top of the list..though the 2015 F-150 will likely reign supreme.

I've been driving Ford trucks for over 30 years. I've never considered buying another brand.

I'm on my 3rd Ford truck and would not consider another make. It would take me too long to count the ford cars I've owned.
