They don’t really make a bad truck in terms of reliability. An old truck, something made in the 70′s, for instance, does get kinda worn out in the suspension at 150,000 miles.
2WD is far, far cheaper than 4wd. You can probably get the same truck used for half the money if it’s 2wd vs. 4wd. Look at the prices of trucks for sale and you’ll see.

All of those questions kinda depend on what your are going to use the truck for.
Me, i’d buy a 4×4 truck with over 150k on it, but I would be using it to wheel.
If you plan on using a truck for a daily driver, and it’s only gonna see pavement, I’d go with a 2wd (because it gets better gas mileage and is cheaper) and find something with low miles.
As far as the best brand, everyone has thier own opinions on that subject. I’ve seen tons of fords with over 300,000 miles on them, but i’ve seen dodges and chevy’s also.
