which diesel?
wouldnt this question be kinda like fining $10 on the convenience store floor and asking in a loud voice "did anyone lose this?':P
My personal opinion is of course the blue oval. but all in all, every vehicle has it's good points and it's weaknesses too. it all really comes down to personal needs and experiences..

This is my opinion only, of course, but I think picking between the various engines is a moot point if you're not looking at the truck they come packaged in. All three engines have their merits, but I don't think anyone builds a truck as good as a Ford.

I agree with Quadzilla. Although I like the little Cummins, ain't no way I would ever own a dodge pick up. Sheesh, even typing that left a bad taste in my mouth. I think the chevy duromax has a way to go before proving itself, I travel westbound on I-70 out of Denver quite a bit and see lots of them sitting with the hoods up.

My personal opinion, Ford. It has the best overall package. I like the powerstroke, but I think I'd rather have the New Venture 6 speed that is on the dodge instead of the ZF I have. My reason for the Ford is the solid axles and leaf springs unlike the goofy dodge suspension.

Ford is the way to go i think. I also like the dodge 6-speed better than fords. It seems to me that ford just added a low-creeping gear i never use mine unless i am pulling a heavy load.
