Again thank you for the inputs! I will be checking out the F350 as well as the chevy 3500 in the near future. I have decided on the DRW due to the fact that my present truck is a DRW and I love the stability and extra element of safety that provides. In the last 10 years prior to retirement I worked for GM dealers as a heavy line and transmission tech, I therefore feel very comfortable with the GM product. I learned that Alison transmissions are indestructible, the Duramax is very expensive to repair. I have never been a Ram/Dodge fan, the Cummins is a great engine but I feel that the rest of the truck is cosmetic and they are not built to last like a Ford or Chevy truck.
Your comments are true for at least the front suspension for the dodge trucks but maybe now they finally figured what was needed and finally is a word that I hope is correct. nothing is perfect
