The new Dodges are pretty sweet, not unlike the other 2brands. Always thought they didn't need to upgrade the 4th gen chassis, even though it appears that there are a few chassis/drivetrain upgrades.
But keeping the old 4th gen body and no 8 speed is BS and not keeping up with the Joneses though.
Glad the ole 07 runs gud still. And it's making 1000ft lbs so.....kinda like a 2019 Ram!
Saw 1 video mention heavier rear axle and bigger brakes, not sure if just the dually, but def a plus for hauling campers!
Have to lol a little at 35k towing, kinda like 30k towing. Little ridiculous for light duty trucks, yet awesome at the same time that they can actually tow that much with relatively little fanfare.
Makes the "1/2 ton is unsafe towing 10klbs" discussions seem silly though!
