The father in law bought a 2010 Ram Laramie and it's a solid truck. Right up there with the F-150 before the 5.0L and Ecoboost came out. I have driven 2 F-150 Ecoboost's and very impressive.

As for the GMC being up there....I haven't followed what GM has done with their trucks in the past 5 or so years in the way of drivetrain or underpinnings but to me, they look the same prior to the collapse.....
