Questions on many fronts:
Who makes the best & worst truck...
For the money.-- Toss Up.
The most reliable -- GM, IME
Best looking. -- GMC, and I don't think it's even a contest.
Towing -- Prob Ford 3/4 ton or GM 1/2 tons.
Resale. -- GM for sure.
Picking up chicks in. -- Mercedes
Easiest to work on. -- The ones without turbos or DEF.
Ugliest colors. -- Ram.

If the 2nd amendment was written just to include guns for hunting, why is there not an amendment to protect fishing poles?

Ive been in a Ram diesel the last few years, my last truck was a Tundra...I still say Tundra is overall the best truck made...
I wish Toyota would make us a 1 ton diesel truck, they just make better vehicles...

The best truck for what? Towing a fifth wheel? Towing a massive trailer of pipe? Just going to town for beer?
The best truck for longevity has to be a Tundra. Not worth a hoot towing a fifth wheel. If you live in the city and just drive to work, maybe a Honda Ridgeline would be best.
Fit the tool to the task.

Fit the tool to the task. It is a 1/2 ton. If I was towing a 5th wheel I would definitely have at least a 3/4. Towing a 5th wheel with a 1/2 ton can end badly. I drive a Tundra because I don't need a 3/4 ton and or all the bells and whistles.

Best truck for the pride flag man bun type is a Toyota since they don’t actually use those for anything other than mall crawling and grocery getting.
Best truck for a man’s man that actually uses a truck for its intended purpose is a Ford or Ram so if your driving anything else I’d have to question your manhood and think you might possibly have a slit between your legs or quietly want one.

Ford makes the ugliest. They make up for their ugliness with feminine features such as massaging seats and pedals that give you pedicures. Those heated tailgates are important for when sitting with your boyfriend discussing all things Creedmoor.
As far as the best quality… they are all man made products so they will all fail

My tundra stays covered in mud and is in 4wd weekly it’s how I make a living. Truck is my office. My last Ford (which was my favorite truck mine you) had the 5.0 and had a burnt exhaust valve. The code started popping not much over 100k. Got real consistent at 200k so I got rid of it before it popped. Tundra has 205 no burnt valve. Which sucks because I hate everything about that tundra except the reliability of it.
