I guess it all depends on where you live. Since chevs tend to leak oil so badly, they were ideal for the road salt conditions found in Ontario and other points east. The leakage actually coated the underchassis and prevented them from rusting out. Here in the West, where salt wasn't such an issue, but you needed a motor that could start at -20 on a regular basis, the Fords were the ideal choice.
I think the army must have felt the same way, since it always seemed to me that there were far more Fords out west, and the chevs were all east.
