Today I decided that I will upgrade my 1999 Silverado extended cab to something with a more carseat friendly back seat. I use a truck as a truck so I don't want to spend more than $20k and I will likely use it to commute 80 miles round trip per day about 50% of the time so gas mileage is a bit of an issue. I am thinking a Chevy Crew cab shorty bed with a 5.3L will probably get the nod. If I run into a great deal on a 6.0 truck I might do that instead. My question is how does something like the Ford FX4 F150 with a 5.4L mill compare to a Silverado Z71 with a 5.3L? I have seen a few write-ups but nothing very conclusive. It needs to have 4wd too so the wheel(s) don't spin on my lawn when I back the boat up into my side yard. I'm not going to spend the extra $$$ on a diesel so that's not a consideration.

Thoughts on trucks?
