You gots dat right!

Unfortunately I wish I could go back in time and buy a Ford or Chevy instead. The Cummins has been great but everything else is a problem. :M

That was my experience as well. Got tired of the constant issues with everything else.

The Tortoise(AKA RAM) always wins in the long game!!!

But they are all pretty nice now a days.

Ford just increased the warranty on 6.7 DEF reductant heater because of on going problems with the system.

"Increase of coverage to 8 years or 120,000 miles - or - if either of those two criteria have passed, the expiration date will then be 12/31/2018"

It's not the walk of shame the next morning that's the issue. Fords and Chevies are sexy too. It's if you get married. You what the high maint b___h or the hot, yet smart and not crazy wife?

Thanks, but no thanks. I prefer not driving around in a Catfish.

The Ram was dinged because it got the lowest MPG in the test. Did anyone notice that the Ram was also the heaviest truck of all 3 ? The "winner" weighed in at 7940 lbs. and the "loser" was 8400 lbs. Also the winner was 20" shorter. Gee, you think that might played a role in the MPG contest ?

bingo

lets see was the winner a short box?
was the winner a small cab?

I dont know dint watch.

Has anyone here encountered anything like the problem that was reported with the Ford in the test porpoising? Is it truly a problem with the truck or was the trailer loaded improperly?

If the 2020's are good looking maybe we can get a two-fer. :B

I could likely get you a very good deal on a new Ram. I think I could buy a fully loaded Laramie Limited for about 59K USD. The problem would be that you would not have any warranty once you imporyed it into the US.

I met someone that did that, it was an insanely low price, without warranty!

It’s good to see that Betty has healed up from the beating.

Did someone mention Betty White in this thread? What in the hell brand of truck is she driving? And what does she know anyway, she's a washed up hag? There are better Betty's in this world, Crocker and Rubble come to mind.

Taking cheap shots at a 96 year old woman? Real classy! :R

Which is exactly what you need to do..
