I'm not so sure. To me, all the the current "big 3" trucks have a certain chinty feel to them that I despise. The Ford feels a little cheaper to me than the GMs, but the GMs make up for it with squeaks and rattles much too soon in the ownership period.

The Dodge isn't some kind od super-special truck, but it can hold it's own with the others, even apart from the Cummins-based driveline. Clearly, Ford has the biggest/best chassis (well, *ratings* anyway), but ratings alone do not a truck make.

Well, now I have an '06!

What is with the '07 fuel? Is there going to be an additive to make my o-rings last longer? Great truck so far!
