I bought a couple of years back (2011) versions. After extensive research I had my choices down to F-150 and Ram 1500. Back then, after driving, personal preference and all the consumer reposts info, I eliminated the GM products (but things change quickly in this industry).

I did not consider imports, but love the Tundra, but was out of my price range to get every thing I want. I wasn't looking at dissel either.

Anyway, truth be told, I landed on going with F-150, but ended up switching to the RAM 1500 because the F-150 was back then 2" longer, and I literally needed the 2" to fit it in my garage. Might sound stupid to some that I made my mind up on that, but parking it in the garage was super important to me, and my comparisons on the 2 were so close anyway that I didn't mind switching.

I've had my truck 3 years now, and I've loved it so far with no issues, but in fairness it's still pretty early in the game given I'm hoping it lasts me 10 years.
