I'd be afraid I would burn myself while climbing in/out of the bed.

Thanks offroadn...yeah, if I was concerned about any real hauling or towing, I would have definitely kept my F250.

Thanks Desert Racer. Well, I can take some ribbing especially since I am posting to the Ford forum...lol....but I still love Fords too. Quite honestly, I miss being on this forum since there is a lot more activity going on, but that is also due to a lot more Ford owners out there than Dodge owners, especially with the new Rams. But I do love my trucks!

No problem with the tailpipes at all.

Here's a couple of my Z71 you asked for:

Stop back around once you sell your Fiat.....

The new Dodge looks alright, a little too much chrome for me. I wouldn't mind having that Hemi under the hood, but I could never see myself buying one. Then again, I never thought I'd buy a Ford so who knows...

I hear ya. If anything really gave me pause, it was the chrome front end. But everything else works so well, I started liking it more over time. The Hemi is awesome, but I am still waiting on the new Ford 6.2L in the Raptor. I made the mistake of checking out the new Raptor and I love it!

WOW... That 250 was awesome! I would have never gotten rid of that thing.

I think the truck looks great man.

I had an 07 Cummins for awhile, but one thing led to another and I had way to many negative encounters with the Dodge customer service. By no means did it take away from the truck at all. I just believe that for as much money, time and effort we as "buyers" put into our trucks I think the service should be better. So I got rid of the truck not long after returning back from Iraq and got me a Powerstroke instead.

All and all its differant strokes for differant folks. I honestly dont blame you at all for wanting to try something differant. I was once a GM guy all the way. Had 2 GMC's, 1 Chevy, 1 Dodge and now 1 Ford. I wish more people would try them all out before always making negative comments about them. They all have there up's and they all have there down's.

Those new Hemi 1500 Ram's are NICE trucks, they have certainly come a long way. In fact if money was not an option right now, the Powerstroke would be up for sale and I would be waiting for the brand new 2010 2500 Ram w/ the Cummins in it. Not that I think its better than Ford, cause I really love my Ford, but rather realizing that they are seriously really nice trucks and change is always good sometimes.

Good luck with it buddy! I seriously hope you have a better service department and Dodge dealers around you. They left a sour taste in my mouth but I wont go as far as bashing the company as a whole for it.

Later.

Thanks. Yeah, I had too many real estate investments to worry about when things started getting a bit too scary so I dumped most of my toys. Plus, the gas mileage issue was really bothering me, but I do miss that truck.

Thanks Southern. And agree, a bad dealer or service department will ruin an owners opinion on any make. But so far, so good for me.

Thanks. I totally agree with having too much chrome and working on some ideas for the grille and/or bumpers. One of the reasons I bought the FX4 package on my F250 was the lack of chrome and thought it looked pretty tight with the mods I had planned. I will probably have similar set up with the Dodge in that it will look closer to my two-tone King Ranch F150 with painted bumpers and minimal chrome.
