I purchased a 2500 4wd Ram last year and it is by far the best truck I have ever owned.
I researched and drove the Fords and was not impressed.
I will never own another GM product for many reasons.
I also have a good friend with a body shop who steered me away from the aluminum bodies on the Fords. He told me the entire body was all replacement panels.
No real body work to be done on the aluminum. It also takes special tools to put the cab body panels together and a total kit to do so was $10,000. That was something he was not willing to spend to work on the Fords. He will not be working on the new Fords with aluminum bodies.
I do own 2 Ford cars and I am happy with them but I guess I will only drive their cars.
