I have owned five F150's.
1982 F100 XLT, 2WD, 302, reg cab, long bed
1995 F150 XLT, 2WD, 351, reg cab, long bed
2001 F150 XLT, 4WD, 4.6, s-cab, short bed
2008 F150 XL, 2WD, V6, reg cab, short bed
currently 2003 F150, 2WD, 4.6, s-cab short bed
also:
1995 Ranger
2001 Ranger
and a couple 5.0 Stangs
I owned an 89 Chevy truck that I bought new and it was constantly in the shop and GM was no help! Now I am not a brand basher but from experience I just feel Fords have a more solid feel and seem to be much more reliable than the competition.

My 08 is my first F150. I've owned a 94 Chevy 2500 and a 90 Ranger before this truck. Drove the Chevy til the frame broke and the Ranger til it got wrecked. F150 FTW. You can't beat the mileage on a Ranger's 4banger 5 speed though, too bad its sitting in my garage until I rebuild it someday.

I've had 4.
First one was a 78 F150 Ranger I got when I was 13. Planned on restoring it but that didn't happen.
Got the 96 when I was 15 and got rid of the 78.
Got a 92 with a 300 6 5 speed for winter then gave it back because I hated it.
Traded the 96 in for my 04 and plan on keeping it for a very long time.

I'm on my second....had 2005 reg cab 8ft box XLT. Only got rid of it because I missed having the room in the cab. Traded that for my new at the time FX4 for $12,000 off of the sticker price...since it had sat on the lot for over a year (I live in GM country). I'd like a newer one, but will probably just keep this one for many more years. I grew up in a GM family and can't say I'm totally converted, but as far as trucks go....I feel that Fords are just built more heavy duty where as the Chevy's felt more like a car that you could still haul or tow something with as long as you didn't try to over load them.
