I agree,
If he mods it,it will fall apart.
Sometimes things left alone have less problems!

And yes I'm brand loyal have been for 40 yrs.

Do we need to talk dodge around here? No

He'll be back to the blue side .

Another reason why I'm not gonna mod the snot outta this truck. As soon as start adding all the go faster goodies, I'll have my friggin foot in the floor. As long as it stays setup like a "daily driver", I can maintain a little restraint.

Otherwise I just couldn't resist filling some kids ricer with a big, black cloud.

Considering I would have been getting 8 under the same conditions with the V10 and 11 at best, I can't complain. But then again, it was about 8ft tall and aerodynamic as a brick.

Yeeeeeaaaaah, I couldn't pass up the offer they gave me. After the Ford dealer didn't want to play, I basically said screw it. They had a bunch of '06's on the lot, all PSD's, and they did not want to budge on the price. Sorry, Mr Dealer Guy; I ain't spending 10K more than I need to on a truck. Especially with the customer service I've received on the last truck.

Yes, I did give them the opportunity for a sale, but they think that PSD is like gold and Big Sarge ain't playing that.

Went and looked at the others (uhmm, no not the Chebbies) and walked out with my wallet intact.

Sooooooo, that's pretty much the story.

I'll definitely say that I'm not as impressed with the other boards as I am in here! They have their good points, but it's mostly centered around the CTD.

I figured you for a MegaCab though, do you find the rear seats confining compared to the Crewcab of the ford?

The MegaCab is friggin' hideous!

I had a SC on my SD. I don't have kids or ever really have anybody in the back, so it's more just junk storage than anything else. The rear seats, compared to my SC are alot more comfortable. The aren't nearly as upright and, for the few seconds that I sat in them, don't seem like they would be nearly as bad on a long trip.

Now compared to my buddies CC, there is definitely less room. Guess that's what they made the MegaMongosoSuperExtendedSillyLookin' Cab for.

Yeah my brother in law just got a dodge Quad cab and from what i remember comparing the two the ford seems to have more of a roomy feel to it, although as like you, i found the rear seats in the dodge to be more comfortable then the fords, as like you said they dont seem to have such a upright feel to them.

do you mind if i ask how much the dodge dealer gave you off sticker, rebates and all?
