It is always nice to hear from someone who is happy with their new truck and wish you continued success with the Ram. I reviewed your post from last October where you asked for opinions about this decision and was impressed with the difference between the majority of the advice and your actual experience. I think that a lot of people just don't realize how much more truck a new half ton is than they were just a few years ago.
I just wish that diesel fuel was only 10% more than gasoline here. I typically see 30-40%, sometimes even more. Of course, it could just be that your gas is high too. That would be a bummer.
