    I've owned 2 Silverado's and a Sierra.....although they are very similar trucks, I like the front of the Sierra better and I've been told GMC is made better

    Denali is really nice, but so is the price tag on it. At least $10,000.00 more.

    F-150s are relatively reliable, generating only about +10% more defects than Tundras after 3 years.

    @Przemekmsu: If the need for a full-size is not urgent, may want to wait until the 2014 model appears next year, then snag a current-gen model at steep discounts.

    2014 truck will be just as ugly:

    Pick the one you like. Price > Looks. Especially if you're just needing a tow rig.
