2004 Ford F-150 - I have really enjoyed this pickup.
My pickup now has 140,000 miles on it. Most of those miles have been on rough dirt and gravel roads. It has held up really well. It does have some rattles that are annoying if you're trying to talk to someone else, but I'm usually by myself.
Story
We had an exceptionally bad winter (2016-17) with more wind and snow than usual. I spent so much time pulling people out of the ditch. My favorite was a guy telling me that my "wussy little Ford" wasn't going to do anything to help get his one-ton Dodge out. I hooked on and pulled him right out. He had to eat his words.
Pros
The seat seems to fit me really well (I'm 5'2" and 120 pounds), but I've had taller and heavier people tell me that they didn't like the seats. While I try to be careful, the truck hasn't had the best life. The paint and trim has held up very well.
Cons
I've taken the pickup to a Ford dealer and a couple tire places for front-end alignments that have not done anything to stop uneven wear of one front tire. No one seems to be able to figure out what's going on with that. I had to replace the engine at 100,000 miles, but that was due to dirt getting around the air filter with all the rough roads I drive. The transfer case just went out, and I am in an area with heavy snow and ice, so I have to get that fixed. The parts from Ford are currently on backorder with no known return date.

1991 Ford Explorer - Marks Motors Cheyenne
They were a no pressure dealership. They answered all my questions and did a great follow up with questions after the deal was done
2016 Ford Fusion - Thunder Basin Ford Gillette
Good focus on me. I felt like they wanted to help me find the car that fit my needs.
