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...

I saw a commercial last night for the '14 ram. 30K pounds towing with 850 ft. lbs. of torque, wow. Surely thats not using the 5.9.


Hello, where have you been? RAM has been using the 6.7 Cummins starting with the 2007.5's. Not that the 5.9 cannot easily be made to that the at the rear wheels with a few mods, or as we call them bombs!
