I'm nursing a strained back and had some time today to wander over to the Dieselstop which I frequented often when I owned my Ford diesels. Let's just say after a few minutes reading the 6.7L forum (with my jaw on the floor I'm sure) I was very happy with my decision to buy a Cummins. I read of several complete engine failures at low mileages. As much as the 6.0L had a lot of nasty problems complete engine failure was rare. Not so much with the 6.7L. Say what you might about the Ram but the latest generation is much better than previous generations and the Ram forums are COMPLETELY different than the Ford diesel forums. Yes there are a few people with some issues (most relatively minor) but nothing like I read today. I'm very happy I got off the Blue Koolaid.

Based on CR surveys some Ram owners may dissagree.

My Ram is a turd. I'm ready to dump it after all the time its been in the shop. Everything is a disaster waiting to happen. Don't believe the Ram mafia hype.

Just because you got a bad one doesn't mean they are all bad. What do you intend to replace it with?

Likely not a Ram. The resale value on my current Ram is killing me. I'm going to take a blood bath trading it in. Also, the better HD trucks on the market are relatively new and more expensive. Ford and GM both have new diesels with more power but they're not discounting them yet. I have to say that the new 17 Super Duty is a fine truck ;)
