Ram 3500 Megacab Dually
I hope I don't regret this, but I just traded my 2011 GMC Denali HD Duramax in on a new 2013 Ram 3500 megacab dually. Reason for the change is I wanted to go dually, and GM does not make a shortbo...

"I don't doubt that your Ram is the best vehicle you've ever owned but it would take quite an interior squeak or rattle to be heard over that Cummins. I realize there are some who like that sound, and others who will even take a nice quiet truck and spend money on it to make it loud....then they spend more money on an aftermarket stereo so they can hear their music over the engine"
when was the last time you "listened" to a brand new Cummins diesel?
It's as quite, if not quieter than the Ford or the Chevy...IF they were as loud as you seem to think they are, I never would have purchased one...I came from three very quiet Chevy D/A's, and loved it.. I'm Not into the loud diesel engines, nor is the wife. The fit and finish of the 10', 12' and 13' Ram were so good that there were no rattles, no air noise through the windows...quietest inside I've owned, and again, the outside noise is quiet with the newer diesels.
NOW, I'll agree with the rest of your analogy, seen it myself, not just "Dodge boys" but also Ford and Chevy owners...tune, delete, make it loud and then, upgrade sound system so they can hear it over the loudness of the diesel...THAT Part of what you wrote, I'm in agreement with.:)
