I've had that great GM feeling a few times. Doubt I will ever own another.
But, people should drive what they like. My poor experience with GM is just that. One person's poor experience. GM, Ram, and Ford all look great these days. Drive what you like and enjoy. Pictures would be nice.
I also don't feel that just because I selected a Ford, it's my job now to sell all others a Ford. Occasionally, I read threads here from members that are looking to be convinced to stay with Ford. Move on. It's okay. Drive what makes you happy and again, post a few pictures.

Good luck with the new truck. I am on the Duramax forum and they are a great bunch of guys. I know you said you didn't have a diesel, but I'm sure you will find a good forum to help with your truck questions.

You're not the only one that doesn't own a blue-oval product that visits this site. I share my RAM experiences with these members if they have any questions about that. Always good to share information as many vendors seem to use the same parts across different manufacturers (Bosch components, Delphi Components, etc...).
I also have to say, I keep coming back to this forum because of the open-minded and more objective view of the members of this forum

.Can't say the same about the Heartland or RV.net forum....

I'm with y'all. My SD is perfect for me and what I need from a vehicle, mostly business use with added benefit of towing around my 5th wheel camper. But that in no way means it's right for anyone else. It helps that I have access to a good dealer,this is probably key and a fact that big ford really should know, the dealer has more to do with owner satisfaction than any other.
I just draw the line when someone makes the leap from being critical of the vehicle to being critical of people who choose to own them.

Try and ask a question over at the Cumminsforum.com.... There's quite a few over there that will attack with no mercy if you ever bring up the Power Stroke and Duramax description. In addition they seam to always compare their trucks to the Super Duty.... Wonder why?

Good luck in your new ride! I personally love GM products, I have owned 4 GM/Chevy trucks and one was a Dmax. I have always owned GM products including my '69 Vette and '87 Buick GN.
I have always loved the Ford SD's and when it was time that's what I bought. My brother in law bought a 2015 1500 and it's really nice and his brother just bought a 2015 Dmax..... Both are nice trucks and u do like them both...... Of course I bought hell from my family for buying a Ford but is all in fun.
I find something's GM does better than Ford and vice versa. For example the instrument cluster and info provided on the GM blows Ford away in my opinion. However I like my truck to feel like a truck and the Ford does it for me.
Good luck on your new ride, it should do everything you need it to!
