New truck...RAM
Traded my 2012 6.7 F250 for a 2014 Ram 6.7 3500 SRW yesterday. Wanted the additional payload and the much nicer ride and nicer interior is a bonus. My F250 had power to spare, but I was pushing the ...

Stro, your the guy I really want to hear from. I am torn between another Superduty or the new Ram. this is my last truck as I am retiring in four years, so my DW says no more changes.

I think Ram is the best truck overall but I am just concerned about the real daily pickup and go from a stop, drivability around town and if under load it has the same Ommphf as the new Ford diesel. Please help an old man out and give me updates around town, highway and towing vs how the Ford diesel preformed. Feel free to pm me if you like. Thanks a ton
I'll try to remember to do that once it get it broken in and pull the 5er this spring. I can tell you already that my Ford 6.7 FELT more powerful, it really put you back in the seat when you stepped on it hard. But mine had 3.73 gearing, whereas the Ram has 3.42. I thought, during the test drive(s) that the Ram was much more refined and smoother feeling. One thing I'm very curious about is fuel mileage. I was averaging about 16 mpg in the Ford just daily use, about 10 pulling. I'm hoping the Ram does that well!
