Really? Even a poster on the first page admitted to numerous problems with his GMC. My brother use to have a dodge Dakota. Electrical system failed not once but TWICE on top on the Mississippi River bridge. Co-worker has a full size dodge and was hauling some items in the bed of his truck which caused heat shield to damage brake lines.

So 1 of your friends had a problem one time and that makes the entire brand of vehicle "known" as having that problem in every model built ever?

Dodge (now Ram) were more known for transmission issues...not electrical (trans issues are now a non-issue). Just because you had one that had electrical issues doesn't mean that every Dodge ever made is "known" for them. Same goes for any other make and model vehicle. Going by your logic, there is a poster here who could say "Ford's are known for electrical issues". Or, based on recent events, I could say "Fords are known for catching on fire". See how that works? It doesn't really. Stop posting stupid diatribe and post something worthwhile not 100% based on your biased opinion.

What OP needs to do is take a day and go to each dealership and test drive them all...narrow it down to what he likes best and what fits his needs, and then narrow it down to what fits the budget. The Sierra, Silverado, F150, Ram and Tundra are all excellent trucks.
