[QUOTE="TreeClimber, post: 792955, member: 16101"] Your point is well taken. And you're not the first to make that point. Seen it in many other threads when the subject of Ford / Dodge / Chevy is brought up. I bought a Ford Superduty (no apologies need), knowing full well that the Cummins is considered the 'standard' of light duty truck diesels. My justification was that I'm not a dodge truck fan, even though I like the engine. Chevy's have IFS, and that kinda turns me off. And my old F250 lasted me from 1991 to 2005, so I was kinda loyal to Ford. But it's a tough call. The Duramax, Cummins, and Powerstroke all are decent engines. The Alison trany is probably the best (chevy) but ford and dodge have the best front ends (dana 60s). Me, I'd like an F250 truck with a Cummins and an Allison, but that ain't happening. IF you're buying used, I'd drive all three, and buy the one that 'feels' right to you. T [/QUOTE]
