SA, I agree with you...Ford and GM/Chevy HD trucks will outperform and outlast anything the Japanese manyfacturers can throw at them. They are real workhorses. Did Ford get it wrong with the 6.0? Yup..sure did....but look at their track record and just look what the contractors are driving and what they are doing to them....the Toyotas, Nissans, etc aren't nearly as rugged and just wouldn't hold up to the beatings that the Fords take every day. Are there exceptions? Of course...but in my opinion, anybody who says that Fords are junk probably had a bad experience with one or had a good experience with a Japanese truck. I would bet that they don't beat on it either.
