What type of truck would you recommend...

It is time to think about a new truck... I live on a farm, like hunting, fishing and working hard. Check out my pictures of my current truck and can you let me know if a Ford and what type would be able to do it.

What type Ford truck can do all of what that Toyota does? Easy... All of them! Only better.

And so can the Taurus.

If you are headed towards Ford, I wouldn't think you'd need more than an F150 to handle what you were doing with the Toyota. I'm not Toyota bashing because I know they are nice trucks too. But if you are trying to get a comparable truck, I would think F150 would get'r done.

Now if you're looking to upgrade capacity, I would go for an F250. You basically get the same truck as the F350, but it is cheaper to own. My F350 has a higher license plate fee as well as a twice a year mandatory safety inspection. You might be able to get a "farm" exemption, but it depends on your area.

Other than that, I went with a gas engine strictly because it doesn't get used often enough to keep a diesel happy and healthy. If I put more miles on mine I would have given more consideration to diesel.
