. . . Just lift the hood on both trucks, that should help with the decision . . .
Speaking of maintenance you forgot about the impossible location of the oil filter on the ram. The Ford on the other hand is right next to the oil pan like it should be.
ram oil filter mess
Ford Oil filter
Give me a break! Sure it's not as easy as the previous models but NO way is it hard at all! Certainly not as hard as cab removal!
I had a thread on TDR "EASY 2013 up oil change". How about posting a link for me of my thread???
I would never recommend removing the intake to the turbo to access the oil filter. Bad idea
I don't see where the problem is. I've probably had the turbo tubes off my Ford 6.0 more times than the oil filter has been changed and haven't had a turbo issue yet.
A bad idea is to design an engine that has to have the cab removed to do much to it. That's what you call opening a can of worms right there.
