I've always liked the look of the Dodge trucks but have never owned one. Gas consumption and repairs reported by others have kept me away. I have a 2006 F150 supercrew with the 4.6L and in the 4 years I've had it, it's been a pretty good truck. Not to say it hasn't had some problems but minor in comparison. Couple of ball joints, brakes, tires (the 18" ones are expensive!), seal in between the tranny and transfer case, fuel module, axle seals, spark plugs, and a couple of other minor things. A ballpark estimate of $2000-2500 spent on repairs plus the tires. Over 4 years and the 170,000km that I've put on it (232,000km in total) that's not too bad imo.
