Ditto, but I doubt it will happen. The thread itself has become well beyond pointless in relation to it's original topic but the mods will most likely allow its continued existence because A) they secretly enjoy the pointless VS debate, and/or B) the thread has become so huge they (and others) want to see how long it can be kept going and how large it can grow. Totally pointless but....
There. I've gone and did my part to contribute to its growth.

Besides we still get people who jump on here and require education, one way or another.

Previous experience shows that if they lock this thread, it will take 1 week for another one to pop up. Having this thread open means they can contain all the V10 vs PSD arguments to a single thread instead of 20 different threads with 20 different names.

Just because the 6.2 has 2 plugs per cylinder and burns gas doesn't mean it is going to perform like the hemi any more than saying "your psd burns diesel fuel just like a jetta" is going to make them perform in a similar manner.

Just add two more cylinders and I will agree!
Still a beast even if it is a little small.
What kind MPGs are you seeing?

the 2009 Chevy was about $3k cheaper than the Ford and the Ram was about $6.5k cheaper than the Ford. All modestly equipped (i.e. not loaded and not stripped) with diesels. That was when I was shopping for them. Part of Dodge's cost saving comes from the fact they don't have to be emissions compliant with their diesel until 2013. Other wise they skimp on materials, just walking around and setting in it felt cheap compared to the other 2.
