I've got an F150 Crewcab and it's great for what and when I need it. I mainly use it for vacation traveling. Very Roomy, and big enough to push everyone out of my way

It's underpowered as hell, but the Mitsubishi Raider is one of the best looking trucks ever made.

I was a truck guy exclusively (have owned 5 different ones) until last October when I bought the G. I always owned Chevy until my last truck when I decided on a 4X4 F-150 Lariat (I got a really good deal).

I have to say, I did not like the Ford at all when compared to the Chevy Z71s that I have owned. F-150s are completely utilitarian while the Chevys have at least some "sport" to them. My suggestion, buy a used Chevy Z71 and have fun!

Oh, and don't forget the flowmasters or other after market mufflers. A truck must sound like a truck.

I think the styling of the F-150's have improved in the last couple years.
The import trucks definitly win on external design though.

Both the F-150 and Titan are full sized pick-ups. I don't think there is much size difference at all. If you are looking at a midsize, why not look at a Toyota Tacoma 4X4. I test drove one and liked it alot but I have always been a full-size truck guy. Plus you get Toyota quality.
