Ford - American built (Kansas City) by an American company :B
GM - American built (Flint) by an American company :B
Lam - Foreign built (Saltillo)by a foreign company :M

I know which one/s I'll choose and sleep good at night.

Good luck...Choose wisely! :W


Let's be honest Fish. Your beloved Ford has a Mexican MADE diesel engine.

My RAM is assembled in Mexico. Entire drive train and most parts are made in USA.

I thought the Super Duties were built in Louisville? I believe Kansas City does F-150s.

I never thought we would ever fortunate enough to have a diesel truck. We chose our Ford mainly due to the X plan we were able to get. Before this, we had a 2008 Tundra 5.7l. It was a great truck but have really been impressed with our F350. As stated many times within this thread, they are all great trucks-we would be happy with any of them.

Any with this engine would be fine


It's the best thing about a RAM truck..the engine it didn't build and I can say that as a previous owner. :B

Seriously, they're all good trucks. Get the one with the best deal and drives well according to you. To each his own and happy towing.

Doesn't it all boil down to the people who drive what I drive are intelligent and the people who drive other brands are a moron. Until I switch brands, then they are the intelligent people and the others are morons. And the beat goes on. LOL
