Well, that's a great way to forget about the game-> BUY A TRUCK!!!!
I have always been a "Ford truck guy", but my previous truck was a 1996 Dodge 1500 4x4 (2 door). It had 160-170k miles on it when I sold it and it was still a very strong truck. No rust with the aluminum body.
If you can get a good deal on a dodge, I say for go for it.
