If your looking for reliability and turbo diesel power,a 7.3 powerstroke or 5.9 cummins are the only choices.I personally run IDIs since they are basically tractors that do 65mph,they literally tow anything hooked to it,and are dead reliable.takes 1 wire to keep it running.A lot of people under estimate the old IDIs,but they been gettin' er' done for years.But it sounds like you are looking for a newer truck,so I would only recommend staying pre emission and DEF,since those are really the only problems the modern diesels have,but to repair them costs more than the truck itself.When I eventually look for a newer diesel,it would be a 7.3 powerstroke with a 6-speed.
Chevy's are known for bad diesels(early 2000s and before),dodges are known for weak auto trannies,loose front ends and bodies more prone to rust(never changed yet),Fords are known for brakes that need to be replaced more frequently(not as much on newer trucks).I don't know about you but I would rather do a brake job every couple years,then replace an engine,tranny,fix bad rust,or rebuild front ends.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
