What type of car/truck would be best to get?

Question

I'm looking for an American made car/truck that would be good for hauling stuff, good legroom, and good engine capacity. The vehicles I was looking at were the 2008 Ford F-150 XL, 2007 Ford Focus 3 door, and the 2007 Chevy Silverado. Which would be the best, also are there any recommendations for a good vehicle?

ConsumerReports.org® Overview

Highs: Cargo space, payload rating.

Lows: Braking, ride, front-seat comfort, engine noise, fuel economy, no full-time 4WD or ESC.

This full-sized F-150 has sound handling and a fairly stiff ride. The cab is roomy, with some neat optional features such as movable overhead storage bins, a spring-assisted tailgate, and a power-opening center rear-window panel. The four-wheel-drive system is only part-time. The powertrain is not as smooth as that in the Nissan Titan or Toyota Tundra. It's also loud and feels strained. Braking performance was just adequate, with long stops in our tests. The F-150 is the only full-sized pickup not to offer stability control. Reliability has improved to average for the 4WD models.
