Never thought I would EVER do this, but I went and test drove a new dodge. I would rather punch myself repeatedly than be seen in an 08 superduty. Come to the conslusion that I'm going to keep my 00 forever, and transplant a 12v into my old 79 f-250 supercab. I almost bought a new 06' and talked myself out of it, wish I wouldn't have.

I don't give bleeping!!!! about front end of 08 SD. I bought mine for toughies. The bad PSD and fact it can pull about anything out their for trailer. It's assume truck and I am diehard Ford man I love all the Ford trucks and cars out their. I know somepoeple don't think that, but it's great truck and you can beat on them and they still keep on ticking.

As to Cheby -used the build and price for a 2007 3500 silverado as the 2008 wasn't on line. Used base vehicle, equiv to XL, and similar options. Price msrp was about the same as the 2008 F350 XL. However, some options were not available (at least on the Chevrolet build & price website.Things I got on the XL and not on the Silverado included tilt steering wheel, Tow Command, 18 in wheels, 4.10 rear, etc. Gross weight was higher on the Silverado by 400#, but DRW was standard to get that GVWR vs 11000 on the F350 SRW.
And of course there is no V10, so without going to diesel, that 457 ft/lb of trailer movin torque isn't there. So convince me that I went wrong.......
And one last fact - the Dodge specs boast a 120 MPH speedometer - like anyone in his right mind is going to take one of the 6-7000# beasts and drive it that fast?

Northland, right on, aint no better trucks made anywhere. Just look at the japs and notice who they copy. Notice the resemblence to the SD in the grills of both the toy and titan? Don't see no snout on them or bowtie! The japs know who rules in the truck world and they are belly up to the plate copying them.
