2013 to 2015

Im in the market for a new to me truck. i'm looking at trucks in the 2013 to 2015 range. was just wondering if there is any big changes in those years? is it worth the changes to spend more money on the 15? and if so what did they change? all i know of is how they changed the turbos from 11-12 to a new one for 13.

The 15s changed the turbo, gained an extra 40HP and a better exhaust brake.

Downside is I'm getting a little lower MPG fuel milage than I used to get in 2011 truck.

If I was thinking about getting another one I would wait until the 2017 hits the lots. I am anxious to see how it affects the prices on the new leftovers from 2016 since the 2017 is all new.

I would shoot for which ever has the lower miles in those model years.

Mine is a '13. I see no reason to upgrade based upon the changes so far.

If towing a lot, the added exhaust brake in the 15 is a great advantage. Night and day over the previous years.

True, but not worth it to me to upgrade at this time. I just use manual mode.

Dear friend,
Ford trucks look good. But I recommend you go for a Dodge Diesel 4x4. See my issues with Ford truck on this page. Many of my friends are transmission and diesel specialists who owns repair shop in San Jose California recommended me the same. But I used to have faith in Ford gasoline truck. Now I regretted buy any other Ford. Do your reseach in comparision between Ford and Dodge diesel before buying one. Best to talk to experienced diesel mechanics who have been working on Fords for a long time. Good luck.

Alright are you for real ? you're not really coming on this form and tell us that Ford has more problems than Dodge lol let's start with my 2007 6.7 Cummings was asked by the Dodge corporation excuse me RAM to please never again buy their products as I was in a legal battle for a year and a half that RAM ate turbos for breakfast smash the piston into the valve never mind the rest of the rapper that fell apart lol . too bad Cummings won't bite the bullet and just build a v8 and stop asking so much out of that little in line 6 . it's got no ***** at all drove a new 2016 before buying my power stroke it's laughable the power it produces it's great at lugging but its got no power to get up the hills with loads fast just my two cents Personally I'm sorry that you're having such an issue with your truck but I'm sure they will straighten it out don't think Dodge is the greener side talk to many a guy on the job site has plenty of transmission electrical problems with their Dodge oh I'm sorry with their Ram truck take care
