The newer stuff has worked reasonably well for us. The only drawback I see is the electronics, and they add more every year doesn't hold up like it should. We are fast approaching (and may already be there) when the electrical gremlins will be what sends mechanically reliable vehicles to the junkyard.
Now that I think of it, we have had some trouble with a Chrysler with Mitsubishi engine--uses oil but no leaks--known problem with those engines.
But mainly is the electrical stuff I've had trouble with. Especially GM and their refusal to attempt to fix it under warranty. I suppose they would if they had a clue what to do.
Back on topic, that is a really sharp looking throwback truck! Too expensive, but that could be said of all vehicles built to grab your attention based on their looks? Dang, one might could say that about some overgrown lawnmowers (982)
