    I wasn't saying it as a bad thing? I was just saying there's a bunch of competition when it comes to fire departments hiring.

    gas.

    2015 extended cab F150 with the 5.0 or a 2015 Chevrolet 2500 4 door with the 6.0. Both 4x4, both comparable towing capacities (major requirement), similar price, and similar mileage.

    I agree with Paul about a poll. I think I would actually choose a gmc over a chevy but a chevy over a ford.

    pretty much what I was thinking. Never been a Ford fan, but they do have a lot to offer. I also don't know if I could got back to an extended cab after owning a 4 door.
