Just between the Big three, GM has good transmissions and engines, Chrysler Styling and Ford body integrity (less rattles).
Back in the day, it was:

GM had good engines and trannies. Good styling.
Chrysler had EXCELLENT engines (see Slant 6 and the venerable 318, as well as Cummins Diesel), and great styling. Trannies sucked usually.
Ford If you treated them well, you might be good for a period of time. One thing that would never fail you was that 9" Ford rear end.

They all were capable of building great cars and failures. Everyone is.
