I had a 2009 totally tricked out Ford F250...masons black...stiched black hides....very very nice

45,000 dollar truck

it got 12 miles to the gallon with a performance chip...the red one?

add a couple of mpg for hwy...horrible mileage

at 25,000 miles it burned out this weird diesel pollution filter down by the cat..

3500 dollars to repair and install and you could only get it then from the dealer

lousy mileage...lousy performance...slowest truck I ever had even with chip and headers etc...i’m serious...slower than my stock 04 dodge megacab after all that and nearly half the mileage and for someone like me who drives 60,000-75,000 per year that is a lot of money

Fords do look good though and are macho styled and good ride ...great trim pkgs

and the old 7.3 was a hoss ...no doubt and reliable if thirsty

but a Cummins is what it is...the best and my Dodges unlike what some here claim have not fallen apart

I’m driving a gas 2007 6 cylinder crew cab now...reliable as a mule...just routine stuff...180k

Dodges are firmer ride...better off road I think...and not as many bells and whistles as Ford or the GMCs...GMC is like a Town Car truck...plush essentially and great hwy ride...fathered my now 5 year old in a 2003 GMC3500 that was like driving a fine leather couch

but for me...I will never own any other truck but Dodge

or...yes....I admit it...a Yota....we have company 4 cylinder Tundras and they are cheap and extremely reliable little workhorses with great gas mileage
