I thought to myself why don’t they make a quality product that actually competes with premium brands? Raising pricing to match premium brands doesn’t mean it’s suddenly worth the increased price

Couple things wrong with your argument: You're comparing 2001 pricing with 2019 pricing and you aren't factoring in the fact that most of these trucks can be had with deep discounts already, so your out the door price is usually nowhere near the MSRP.
