Congrats. My brother in law is a big chevy fan, and on more than one occasion, we've been comparing trucks, and each time he's said "it looks like everything on the fords are much beefier, and more heavy duty". Most recently, he was riding in the back of my new truck, and said "man this thing has a lot more room than my crew cab." I still don't understand why he hasn't seen the light yet.

Thanks guys! The reasons why I switched...
- less problems reported with the DEF on Ford than Duramax
- Ford dealer gave me $30,000 to trade for my Duramax, and Chevy dealer only $19,000.
- Love the tailgate handle and step to get feed and bales in and out of the box
- Much more leg room in the backseat for my crew
- The Ford 6.7 "felt" better when we compared both the new Duramax and the Superduty
- The dash and inboard creature comforts are much more technologically advanced, especially love the computer. Chevy's dash and gauges are old and boring.
- Ford didn't take the bailout.
- Ford sponsors the "Built Ford Tough" bullriding events. (huge fan)
- my queen liked the looks of the bigger beefier Ford.
- Ford dealer threw in a spray-in liner, mudflaps, and threw in 5 oil changes for free.
- Ford dealer was excellent to work with, Chevy dealer acted like he could care less if i bought one or not.
- Front seat converts to bench seat. I told my Queen that was now the "girlfriend seat". She loves it!
