Ford is supposedly more reliable. I've owned GMC, Ford and Dodge. There isn't a huge quality difference.

You may be surprised what $50k cash will get you.

2wd with Denali Ultimate package....45k is doable. You figure another $5-6k for TT&L without a trade in and your right at $50. Add about $5k for 4wd with the same package. They are eager to get ride of those 2018's.

Only 50K? Might have to get a used truck for that.

These fools don't care about facts. Concerning trucks just by the one you personally like they are ALL well built these days.

you were probably one of those kids in class who kept on taking the fake test and made a fool of yourself; while the rest of the kids finished the test in one minute because they read the directions.

Walk in with 50k in a briefcase, they’ll sell you the KR or Platinum for that.

If you’re financing......you’re not getting it for 50k

Dealers don't care if you pay cash. It's a net negative to them as opposed to financing it with them.

Correct answer but you'd better be willing to add another $25k to that $50k.

I'd buy a used truck for under 10K and use the rest to buy enough beenie babies and pokeyman cards to retire.

That truck is about 36-40k. You can get a king ranch for 50. I'm talking actual sales price, not msrp.
