This is the brand that i've put on my vehicles....and had very good luck with...
Power Stop
They also sell slotted rotors but admit they don't cool any better than stock....

Well thats the problem.......there are differing opinions on who's right....
Like I said before......Take a look at the vehicles running drilled rotors....supercars, vettes, porsche's, superbikes....and you'll see they ALL have drilled rotors......I'm guessing those manufacturers don't put sub standard parts on the vehicles......
And while your truck isn't a supercar....it does do a fair amount more braking than say a fusion.....because of the weight you'll build up more heat.....
You'll find people on both sides of the debate.....some say cross drilled are better...some say the others are better.......all i can tell you is the personal experience i've had with them is excellent...

Frozen Rotors Brake Rotors
"The cross-drilled design degasses brake pads and decreases rotor heat, making the braking system more effective."
Right from diversified cryogenics own mouth....

And from brembo...
"Both drills and slots improve braking consistency, continuously cleaning and refreshing the pad surface. These slots or drilling provide a path to disperse built-up heat and gasses that result from pads acting on the rotors, as well as help to clean and refresh the pad surface"
