I'm looking into purchasing a truck, possibly new out the lot. Any members owned both makes before, pros & cons etc. etc.?

I was looking at Silverados and F150's at both Serramonte Ford/Stewart Chevrolet.

Btw my work gives me a Ford discount but not for Chevy.

How is this even a question? [Confused]

The rate Chevy are getting recalled I'd say away from that shit storm of a company.
On top of that you get a discount on Fords. Seems like a no brainer to me. [patriot]

We all love fords, but I recently bought a Toyota Tundra, and I love it! They are good vehicles, reliable and keep their value.

i had a 2012 F150 for 2 years and loved it. especially for a DD. it was the V6 ecoboost and managed well over 20MPG cruizing on the freeway. pulling a 26' enclosed trailer with a dirtbike and 88 GT. climbed the altamont around 2500RPM without issue.

I'm considering the new GMC Canyon. I'm not certain on the new 2.8L 4 cylinder diesel though. It's got a ton of torque (roughly 350) but only around 180 horsepower. I might just stick with the 305 hp V6. It all depends on what kind of mileage they get since I put so many miles on my vehicles. If the V6 gets mid to high 20's (which is likely), I'll go that route. Towing capacity is 7000 pounds. Not bad for a mid size truck.
