I'm looking for a replacement truck
Ok, first off, I don't want to start a brand war here, but would appreciate some input based on experience. My TC hauler, a 1997 Ford F350 diesel dually suffered frame damaged by hurricane Michael....

I was shopping for new truck 2 years ago.
Having owning Fords before, I steer into this brand, but I was checking Dodge also.
Point is that I could not find Dodge cheaper than Ford and they seem less popular on West coast, so not too many dealers to talk to.
Used truck at the end of warranty cost just few thousands less than new, so I ended up custom-building precisely what I want.
Found dealer in 100 miles radius who offered $6000 off MSRP, so avoiding costly options that I have no use for, my new truck come cheaper than used stuff on the market.
That said, the 440 HP diesel is a beast and I love 360 cameras, not even talking about live traffic on GPS.
MPG in my footnote and that is 95% loaded with 5000 lb camper, or 7000 lb cargo trailer.
