there is no "least db truck" per se, some buy fords, others dodge, the smart ones buy chevy's. however that being said alot of people from out east prefer dodge, perhaps it reminds them of how the vehicle drives after hitting a moose?

4X8 box that was actually used.

Had 50 years of experience with North American pickups, through the rust-out years of Chevrolet and the Fixorrepairdaily F150 4x4.
Now this old retired guy drives a Nissan SUV - over 250K on the clock, and the first thing that failed was a rear wheel bearing. Other than that, there have only been usual service items like tires, brakes, oil changes etc. Drove Toyotas for the town car for many, many years of trouble free service.
I would be looking at Toyota for a pickup truck, if I was in the market.

One that you own - that's not owned by the bank - the real Albertan way of owning things - good lessons learned from a cyclical economy and prudent Scottish ancestors.
Delta Bravo Alberta trucks will be selling for 10 cents on the dollar any day now.

I thought you wanted to know what the least DB truck was.
Seriously, RIGHT NOW in our economy the perfect Albertan truck is one that's PAID FOR.

35 or 55?
I say that's a sweet ride - and it no doubt paid for.
She'll look good hooked up to horsepower when you can't afford to buy gas anymore.
They called those Bennett Buggies - named after Con PM R.B. Bennett in the dirty 30's.

Anything 2wd and regular cab is pretty hard to be a D-bag in... That is as basic a work truck as one could have!

Best truck...easy...a 2003 to 2007 Dodge 2500/3500 4x4 short box powered by a Cummings 5.9 Diesel...Auto or Standard Tranny/ makes no difference other than user preference.
So make sure that you all  write this down so none of you ever have to ask this question again.

Love seeing an old 80's Ford or Chev that has been kept in pristine condition and driven by some tough old bugger

In answer to the OP's question: anything bigger and heavier and "meaner" than the RAV I've been driving for the last year or so.
