The Ford is the quietest? I'll take it. The Cummins hum can get pretty old after a long day driving.

And according to you sig line you have never owned a 4th gen RAM!

On the road towing with the lower RPM RAM may be quieter than the higher RPM Ford. Chris

There are a few reasons for not continuing with Ram. 71db to 68db is quite a bit quieter in the new ones. The Ram has a collection of vibration dampeners bolted under it attempting to quiet it down. Apparently, it hasn't. My '03 common rail Cummins was as quiet as a new on with regard to diesel clatter. It's the Cummins hum that turns into Cummins drone after a long day on the road. I believe it was at 2100rpm under load if I remember correctly.
