I've been using my 77 Cherokee to tow my other Jeeps, cars, and projects for the last 15 years. I'm ready to retire my Jeep from the work life and only use it for fun. I'm looking for a good used full size truck to use as a daily driver. I have a car that I use for my daily driver now, but it has almost 300k miles. Being an AMC guy, I don't have brand loyalty. I'm looking at the Ram, Sierra, Tundra, and Ford.
I've been reading online and these seem to be the years most people prefer for each type.
Ram: 2004 ~ 2010,2012
Sierra: 2009 ~ 2013
Tundra: 2009 ~ present
Ford F150: 2006 ~ 2009, 2011 ~ present (Stay away from 5.4L)
Ford F250: 2007, 2009, 2010, 2012 ~ present (Stay away from 5.4L)
I only want to spend around $15,000, so I can't afford a diesel. I'd like less than 130,000 miles. Reliability is my main concern, followed by being able to tow my cars, then MPG. I also need a 4 door. What do you all think?
