Ford versus Dodge truck for towing 40 foot 5th wheel

I have a 2009 F250 right now and we just purchased a 2012 40 foot Alpine fifth wheel. I am wondering if we should get a dually truck and if we should go with a Ford or Dodge. I have had real good luck...

Dodge trucks from 7.5(6.7's) up until they added the DEF this year get low mileage and have a few issues with the smog stuff. Ford's and Chevy's have the CP4.2 injection pump and Ford seems to not want to stand behind it with a warranty!

I think the new RAM with the Aisin auto tranny and DEF is the way to go!
