Both of those certainly are good starts, but consider whether they are offering trucks that are more heavy duty than what you'll need at the top end of your duties. If so, consider more than just the domestics to include other options, like Toyota, Honda, and Nissan. The Ridgeline is a good option, from what I've read and heard, if you don't need a heavy duty hauler.

The Ridgeline isn't good for hauling. It has a "trunk" built in to the
truckbed. The floor won't hold up as well as other trucks. They're more for the suburban cowboy.
On the other hand, the Toyota Titan is a great truck, built in Texas, with the most powerful engine available in anything other than the GMC Denali. Of course, fully-loaded, it will run you about $30,000.
Get a Sierra SLE with the basic 350 short-block and it'll run for about 500,000 miles.
