To what point-- each make from great cars and trucks, to those left wanting. Loyalty is not what these companies are good for--- they design and build cars that no one wants, and then push out employees that have given most of their adult lives working for them. Treat these companies like they treat others---make them work for you, get the best car, for the best money and who cares what badge is on the front.
I've worked on most make and models for a lot of years--they have all made great cars to absolute junk. If one car company was so much better then the other you would figure after 100 years one would own the others--the way they switch executives / they just may be the same company.
Don't fall for that "I only buy *********, and so did my father, and his father" or " I only purchased ******** now, I Purchased a ****** once and whole company builds Junk" Most people buy used cars--that car is only as good as the person who took care of it before you. Loyalist buy a car--if that car is bad, they only think that car was built on a Monday or Friday--but, if they buy a different brand--and that car is bad' the whole company is bad. The only way a loyalist buys another car brand is when they think they are getting a killer deal and getting something for nothing----that never happens, they are just buying another persons mistake.
That is why there are companies like Consumer Research, J.D. and Assoc.......... Become informed, do your research, and go with the car--not the company. No matter how good a car is, if it doesn't fit your needs--you will never keep it or like it.

You will find people have had issues with every make and model out there so it's pretty much a craps shoot.... I've heard of chevrolets that needed a transmission before the 3/36 warranty was out on them (and one of the reasons why GM had to go to 5/100 powertrain for) Pretty much each maker has had problems.. GM and Chevrolet had less issues with the Diesel engines than Ford has in the last 4 years or so (the 6.0 in a Ford, unless you roll it like you stole it, seems to have issues) but pretty much read the forums devoted to these trucks.. I've seen Fords, chevrolets, and dodges go 100-200k miles with just normal maintaince and I've seen some that never got out of the shop. All big trucks like you want are poorer on gas milage.. it's just a common issue.. I own a f-150 and work on many Fords from f-150 up to f-550s and other than the 6.0s have about the same issues as the other two makers when it comes to reliability... Get one with an extended warranty, have a mechanic check over it and get a car fax on it.. yes it will cost money but for the amount of money you are wanting to spend on a truck.. you need some assurances.

You're going to get all kinds of inconclusive answers since it's all a matter of personal taste.

I vote Chevrolet, Ford, and Dodge in that order.
