Common issues with Dodge 6.7L or Ford 6.7
Hoping to solicit some of the collective advice from the gurus on the forum about a new truck purchase. I've been lucky to own a few great trucks: 2001 7.3 powerstroke, a 2007 LBZ duramax, and just ...

You should by what I have. It's the best truck on the market. I know because I say so. :)
Seriously though, I've had my 2012 Ram for 4 years this coming weekend. Two recalls. One for a grid heater harness and one for an emissions which I tried to not get done but they snuck it in on me one time. Never got the tie rod recall notice. I had an EGR valve get sticky. Took me about 1hr to fix, besides the soaking time. Probably my fault for doing too much in town driving. Been totally happy with the truck.
I never looked at GM because there just seems to be a shortage of 3/4 ton diesels where I live and deals are not very good. I have always been a Ford guy but after owning my 2010 F150 I lost faith in them. I might of bought an F250 diesel but at the time there were some growing pains with the CP4. Because of that and the good deal I got on my Ram with the CP3, I went with Ram.
I wouldn't hesitate to buy another Ram. Ergonomically they fit me perfect. Fit and finish is top notch and with the new ones going to DEF and the coil spring rear suspension on the 3/4 ton they seem to be the best for ME.
Best thing to do is drive all 3. JMHO they're all good. Each has there pros and cons, so to me it comes down to creature comfort and the best deal you can get.
