Do we have the most reliable trucks on the planet?

I am always surpised at how reliable and still on the road the pre 90s Chevy trucks are. I mean around here, in NM I see at least 50 times the number of pre 90s Chevys still on the road than ANY other make. There are a few scant Dodges but very few, and about 1/10th the number of pre 90s Fords stil on th road here. In fact, i may see a ore 80s Dodge for every hundreds or so pre 80s chevys! I also see about 200 times as manny 70s vintage and even 60s vintage Chevys than Fords and of course I never see 60s or 70s Dodges, well maybe one in a year.

I haven't driven my 1974 for two months, as it has been sitting in 3ft of snot with a 5ft drift behind it. I have been driving my Range Rover because it is 4x4. Anywho....I walked out last night at about 9pm and it was about 30 degrees I jumped in the old beat and pumpped the throttle five times and touched the key and it fired off like I had driven it twnety minutes ago!
I love this thing!
