Truck shopping-Chevy or Dodge
Who knew picking out a vehicle could be so frustrating? I could get a new 12 or 13 Ram 3500 dually. But now I'm starting to consider used Ram and Chevy duallies from the last few years. I've read that...

You don't get that from a test a Magazine does. You get that from real world experience.
The Duramax/Alison combo is good, rated at 250K but the Cummins is rated for 350K.
Think about it, all Cummins does is build engines. Less moving parts, you can see both sides of the engine, the in line 6 is the best for delivering torque.
I would pick either way before I would think about a Ford.
Take a new Ram Longhorn for a spin, that will open your eyes to what an improvement Ram has made in the last 3 years.
And it's years of frustration that will make someone respond like this. If the Cummins inline develops the best torque, why does it get its a$$ handed to itself during any pull off comparison. :R
Nobody is buying this nonsense anymore! :W
