Man, if you think any one manufacturer has the best truck year in and year out you are sadly mistaken. They all have issues!
At my work, we have a 02' Dodge with 843,xxx miles and a motor out of a first gen that has close to 800k on it when we pulled it from a running driving truck to put in a 1-ton chevy dump truck that kicked a rod out the side of the block. We have a 2-ton International with the big brother of the 7.3 powerstroke that has been in use since the mid 90's with who knows how many miles since the odometer dosen't work, and the bosses wife drives one of the cleanest 02' Chevy Duramax's (<80,000 miles) you have ever seen. Sitting here at my house now I have one Dodge, one Ford, one Chevrolet, one Toyota and one jeep. I'm not brand loyal, I buy what works.

@Rum Man I recently replaced my original starter with a high torque unit. Makes a world of difference in the cold Iowa winters. 99$ on amazon.

 

[Rum Man]

I just did the starter and a set of batteries a few months ago !

 

[iowaelkbum]

Did you go high torque?

 

[Rum Man]

I took the only one they had . If I remember it was about $ 250.00

 

[iowaelkbum]

You would know if it was high torque. It spins engine the probably 3-4 times faster

I recently MADE the truck start during -20 F. It saved me during an emergency, after sitting cold all night.
