I am probably going to buy a full size truck and camper. Reasonable price is a must, so I am loking at higher mileage/older trucks. I grew up in an era where American cars were a bit sketchy, and the distrust continues to this day. That said, I have had my confidence boosted on Ford F-150 (do they make an F-150 3/4 or 1 ton?) and Chevy/GMC by the sheer numbers of them out there. Dodge, not so much. I have seen too many K cars and Caravans that smoke like street side BBQ shacks, but there are a ton of them out there (and they are usually cheaper than Ford or Chevy).

So, what are your thoughts on truck makers? What are your experiences? Any definite "buys" or definite "do not buys"? I am not interested in a dually or diesel.
