Any Ideas On A New Truck

I need a new truck, currently driving a Ford. Are there any good deals out there?

What brand of truck are you driving and are you happy with it?

Had Ford all my life, but current truck is a GMC Sierra 4x4. Truck drives and rides like a car, but I've had no end of tranny trouble. It's better on gas than any Ford I've had, but I'm headed back to Ford for next truck. Didn't have a good experience with GM warranty while trying to get tranmission fixed (multiple times).

Nine in 10 small businesses using Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program say they cannot fill those positions with local employees, according to new research from the Canadian Federation of Independent Business.
