Default If GM didn't exist, what brand truck would you buy?

I'm not trying to open a can of worms or get into a brand loyality war here, just want to know if any other brand truck has caught your eye. If Chevrolet and GMC didn't sell trucks, what brand would you buy? My choice would be a 1500 2WD Ram Quad Cab with the Hemi. I would get the Hemi simply because it's the larger of the two engine options, not because it's a HEMI. I like their sport package that has the 20" rims and tires, the colored key painted to match bumpers and factory billet grill. So this is my choice, what would be yours?

eh... build my own. dodge is a piece of ****. made in mexico, with some ugly as hell 20's. ford, well, we wont go there. over head cams don't belong in trucks, so that kills off nissan, toyota, and ford (another reason not to get one)

Same here, I would go with a SC Harley. On the right hands, it can be very fast for little money.
