I want this truck!

I've been driving Fords for years, but goddam I want this truck.
I've had 2 2019 F350 diesels in the last 2 years, both have left me stranded for a week or more. My current one is in the dealer for a heater failure, locking up brakes, and a transfer case that can't decide where it needs to be .
Nice trucks, well equipped, but for how much I actually tow I think I might jump ship. Especially after last week when I did a 10 hr trip driving from Alaska to home with no heat and a transfer case that grenaded on me. This is the second '19 F350 I've had, the first had brakes fail, ecu lock up, and a turbo shit itself before 20 k (kms). When that happened, they told me maybe a month before they could get a replacement turbo. I told them they were buying my truck back, and they needed to find me a new one. They did, no issues there. But the new one is no better.
Life is too short for boring vehicles, and work is too important for broken vehicles. I am stuck with this piece of shit Ford right now, but I'm switching to a Chevy for the next one. If that one doesn't work I guess I'm fucked, I'd rather walk than drive a Dodge.
I should have kept my '15 F350, good truck with minimal maintenance. Just like my '08, still going strong.
