I'm looking to buy an old (67-72) Ford F-100, or GMC seirra, and I'm wondering how reliable they were/are?

They kinda werent. They where simple trucks beating on it with a wrench fixed most issues they had few parts that say failed. So they could be fixed easy if you know how to fix them an average kid now a days would be lost with these old trucks. They always needed tinkering but they would run through a brick wall and fire right back up.
New they were all pretty reliable. But 45/50 years later who knows. Lots of owners each and hundreds of mechanics per truck your guess as good as the next guy. Buy one today and you may make it across the street or across the USA… But all can be fixed
The fords where well made in their time. The 390 motor was a gas guzzler. I would love to be able to own and operate one.
- Isn't it hard to force the EU to buy our cars? Ford announced they'll stop making regular cars, and they don't want our gas guzzling SUVs? Or huge trucks. That's what part of this trade war is about fyi, our products that they don't even want. Interesting, but 10% vs 2.5% isn't exactly earth shattering on cars. Plus that article's talking about OBAMA'S proposed free trade not Trumps.

- Are Early generation GMC and CHEVY SUVs reliable? Looking to buy a 2000-2006 gmc yukon or envoy, or 2000-2006 Chevy Tahoe, i like gm cars, but if i found a used ford explorer or expedition in good condition i would consider it.
- Why would people buy a Honda CR-V when they can buy a more reliable Ford Edge? A Honda CR-V may last up to 250k miles but Ford Edge has a minimum lifespan of over 500k miles or more…
