[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 287039, member: 2862"] Owned both Dodge's and Fords over the years, and each has their place. You will flat out not beat the Dodge for hard working. The solid front axle is fantastic for the really big holes and for control when heavily loaded. Having said that, I just bought a 93 Ford with a 7.3L for a ranch truck and Dodge could learn a thing from Ford, vis-a-vis operator comfort. The Ford seats are far better than anything that Dodge has, and that includes the new trucks (my last Dodge was an 05 Laramie) and the Dodge trucks tend to suffer from too much wind noise that you just can't seem to correct. So if you're going to be bouncing through truck swallowing holes while pulling heavy, buy the Dodge. If your work that you're doing is a little lighter, and you won't be towing as heavy, buy the Ford (I'll echo the "stay away from the 6.0L"). Rod [/QUOTE]
