Totally agree! Would like to see a very thorough comparison that takes into account various driving styles and needs. Right now I'm leaning toward that 2.7 Ecoboost with its version of the payload package. The 5.7 Hemi Ram is a VERY close second. I think I still like the Ram interior more, and it's proven itself to be reliable and capable. The GM half tons are pretty darned nice now too. The Ram definitely seems to be the best deal in town though, and probably will continue that way for another year or two. I could easily make that Ecodiesel do everything I need, if the right deal came along.
Consumer Reports speculates that the Ram Hemi has the same fuel cost, and lower operating cost than the Eco-Diesel. I'm not saying I agree or disagree, but they do know data, and that is their take on it as of the info on their site.- I've heard of a few live volcanos one can buy. I have one here in Washington I can sell you......
Marty - Two different trucks with two different missions.
If I were doing a comparo it wouldn't be between these two trucks, but I have no use for a half ton so it's mostly meh to me.
I like both trucks - they're both good at what they were designed to do.
The rest - interior/features/etc - are all a matter of preference IMO. Fast Mopar wrote:

What????? I thought I heard something strange last night! Thought it was just a thunderstorm passing through. :B- Why are you so hard up on this? Fine, you like the eco gas guzzler. Others like the VM diesel. Fine, settled, move on, time to mature!

I was thinking the same thing. Hybridhunter wrote:
