Why buy a new truck? Even if you can afford it, does it really make much economic sense to spend give or take $35K on a new one? Especially ones with quad cab, heated leather seats, lariat, slt etc. and all that other BS you don't need. Maybe I am just cheap but I think that a used truck of any make GM, Dodge, Ford would be reliable if well maintained, unless you got stuck with the occasional lemon. Is it a ego thing? I would rather spend on land. I am perfectly happy with an 93' Chevy 3/4 ton 350, 120K been a good truck, bought it fivw years ago. Depreciation is bad on a new vehicle too, even if you plan to keep it for twenty years it's still a factor to consider. I don't think there is anything wrong with having something nice, I just think that spending that much is very accessive.
