Not sure who was doing that, the Ford has more HP then the Ram so it had better out run the ram towing and it did but only by 46 seconds. So if running up the hill faster then the other guy is what you want get the Eco-Boost. If towing and make 14-19 MPG doing it is more important then get the Eco-Diesel. But bottom line get what you want because YOU researched the trucks reading what the owners say about it NOT what the manufactures say. BTW I'll bet you lunch that the Ram didn't have the 3:92 gear ratio in it.

Actually it did. But it's funny how you change the game whenever it favors Dodge. The fact is, if the ED can do it, the 2.7TT can do it with more in reserve, for cheaper.
And the market will determine which is cheaper and sells, so if the Dodge is cheaper, and sells fewer, which is better? Facts say the ED is just not worth it for tangible reasons. The argument is favor is all about philosophy, not dollars and sense. Or cents.

Just to clear up this I called the dealer and was told the oil filter cost $60.00 and the oil (Pennzoil 5w30) cost $9.20 X 11 = $101.20 for a total of $161.20. The Ford dealerships as doing full Syn oil changes for $49.95. So win for Ford.

Does this cancel out the 2 pages of BS about maintenance costs? Geez.
