How do you plan to use it?
The F150 and F350 are both ok looking trucks and set up more for wheeling from the looks of it. The Bronco and the Tahoe are cleaner and would better lend themselves to highway life.
If I was going to pick one to compromise, I would have to look at the Bronco. Good storage, lots of aftermarket, and good power. Just look it over really good for rust. Broncos rust out tailgates and wheel wells.

well both ford trucks are lifted.... aka had the crap beaten out of them off road already... broncos are awesome and cool and all but like it says its already starting to rust..haha at ford! this leaves us with the tahoe, even tho it has 185k miles, it most likely hasnt been beaten on at all, id rather have a newer high milage car then an older average milage car, plus its got leather and in dash cd changer, plenty of cargo room, 4 doors blahblahblahhhhhh the 'hoe wins

if you are looking to spend a little bit of money (2000-3000) you probably not going to get a truck that was properly maint. and looks good and needs nothing. Just go buy a new truck then.
