No sh!t. This months TRUCKS magazine did a 3 section special on FORD, DODGE, and Chevy. There were very few and mostly minor complaints coming from the Dodge owners. There were Chevy owners complaining about the engines on their Vortec engines. I just skimmed through the article. I really didn't see anything negative in the interviews they did with the Dodge owners, but the negative feedback they got from the Chevy owners was severe.

The most satisfied owners of all the interviews appeared to be Dodge Ram HEMI owners.

Poor fool. The old man recently got rid of his Duramax Chevy and picked up a Powerstroke Ford F-250. Let me tell you that the Ford would drive circles around the Duramax while pulling my Dakota behind it.

Oh come on man. Being a dodge fan doesn't mean you have to live in a fictional world. There is no harm in admiting that Ford hit a rare homerun when they developed the Power Stroke. If your going to stoke it you might as well power stroke it. I'd still rather be cummins then stroking though.

As far as looks, I think the F-250 has dodge beat.

ELROY,
Hey, that's the best news I've heard so far. I hope the lots are full, it will be the first time. That's been my biggest gripe about being a Dodge Loyalist. The Dodge dealers never have their lots full and what they have on the lots are either cheap base models or maxed out 4x4 4dr models.......

The last 2 Dodge trucks I've bought were found on the internet and I had to drive 400 miles.

Yep, another Chevy Lover has crawled out from under a Chevy "Rock".

you must live in a fairytail world, the truth of the matter is that Dodge/Cummins has more torque then all the others dispites GMC/Chevy claiming 590 lb ft torque as highest Dodge/Cummins has 600. Torque is true power, Horsepower is simply a braggin number that "Real Men" ignore.

If you want to see torque, go buy this months issue of TRUCKS. They have a 4wd Dodge Ram with a Cummins TD making 1883ft-lbs of torque. THAT'S NO MISSPRINT!!! This is not a super build up engine. This engine has stock internals with bolt-ons making 1883lf-lbs of torque and 700HP!!!! PUT THAT IN YOUR PIPE AND SMOKE IT!! Who's your daddy??.......

He almost smoked the dyno!!! The Ford PS would blow the entire bottom out of the engine if it even tried to make that much torque.

This is a daily driver. This guy is in the military! He paid for this on a military salary!! READ IT AND WEEP!

Piston slap is on the vortechs not the duramax. The duramax has the injector issues to deal with. The new 6.0 powerjoke has been discontinued I have heard, maybe ferd will bring the 7.4 out of retirement. Anybody laying down some good coin for a Ram, do yourself a favor and get the Cummins, not the Hemi. Sure the Hemi is going to be a little faster stock than the Cummins, but with a fueling box and some bigger injectors and a few other bombs you will be able to smoke and out tow almost anything around. There is a guy I believe running in the 10's quarter mile in a lifted Ford f-250 with a transplanted 12 valve cummins under the hood. GOT TORQUE?

Does calling another manufacturer names like "ferd", "powerjoke", and such make them feel bad, or just you feel better? Either way, your making us all look stupid. And mopar=more power or mopar or no car? Are we in grade school here guys? Silly slogans like that bring to mind second graders arguing or redneck hicks giving eachother a high five for such a good insult. Please remove the lame bumper stickers because your creating a bad name for all dadge fans.
