I am Ford guy.. Got with the kids and me we have f-250, 2-f150, 2 mustangs, 2 explorers. Only thing I can tell you is to watch the 2004-2007 ford f150.. then have been known to have engines problems around 100,000 miles. I just bought my kids a 2002 f150 crew for my son and 2006 explorer for my daughter, they love them. I would get a truck myself.. Great for hauling pins!!!!
