Well....they brought the Dodge out today for me to drive a few days.......so far it just doesn't do it for me ....I'm afraid it's going to be very difficult to give up this King Ranch, so smooth,so fun to drive, great mileage and unbelievable interior....I do like the screen and the engine brake on the Dodge......not near as snappy as the Ford.......I guess a good deal doesn't always demand a trade

no one can compete with the top trim level Ford right now, they are easily the nicest. Dodge has made lots of progress since 2010 but not quite there yet. Plus they don't have the best quality and reliability. You did the right thing. You can trade into a Dodge from Ford pretty cheap but it Would've cost you double to trade back up to a Ford later, haha!
