    Ram for the win. Even my dad agrees, and he's driven Fords his whole life. Don't get me wrong, Fords are nice; but they're gonna have to have Cummins as an option before they get my business.

    Random thought, seeing how cold it is right now.... Review Ford's rapid heat system on their Super Duty diesels (or highlight the feature in a review) to see how much quicker it actually warms the cab than a diesel without it.

More about looks and feels of leather and crap I won’t buy. I’m a Tradesman trim guy. Don’t need all the cameras and the 12” info screen. I know how to use my truck without a computer and cameras! 😉

      With a 2500/3500 long bed, you need at least 3 Lanes to make a u turn without going up on the curb. You can make it with 2 of you kick it out to the right just before you make the u turn. It's terrible!!
