F450 vs Ram 3500 DRW tow vehicle

So the wife and I are moving to the full time RV lifestyle. We just purchased a 42' toy hauler this weekend, with a GVWR of 20K#. Now I'm looking at a tow vehicles. I'm considering either purchasing a new 2020 Ford or Ram, but leaning more towards the Ram, after doing some homework and my own research. Before I make my final decisions I wanted to hear the RV community opinions between these trucks. I greatly appreciate your comments.

Thank you!

Did you test drive them? They are both exceptionally capable vehicles. One of the guys in our camping group has a 2020 F350 dually and the ride is incredible. Even aired up to 80psi in the rear it was smooth and compliant feeling. I was quite impressed with the ride.

If you are leaning towards the Ram why not the Ram 4500?

Both are fine vehicles IMO.
