If you're one to "drive it into the ground", I take that to mean 10-15 or more years of ownership and 200k+ miles. To me that's a different customer than someone who likes to get something new every 5-7 years. Spend some time on forums for each manufacturer you are considering and see what sort of issues seem to be a trend.
I went through the same exercise end of last year, and all forums but Toyota were a shitshow of problems. Toyota owners mostly just discussed upgrades and mods. So I ended up with a Tundra. Yes, the mpg sucks and the truck is way behind the times when it comes to modern tech and features. Not a plush interior and a lot of hard plastic. It is a truck. But swapping the head unit and other things can help. And hell, you could still get a lemon.
The Chevy Trail Boss and Ram Rebel were awfully tempting to me, and I would have gone that route if I thought I'd be in the market again in a few years.
There are a ton of great options for new trucks these days but holy shit the prices are out of control. Good luck with your search.
