I think awesome is an overstatement. The Cummings is awesome, the Dodges are junk, at least where you spend all your time - in the cab. I always give him **** about that, cause he loves the interior of my truck. 
Now if ford could just get a contract with Cummings we'd be set!

When I was looking to buy, it was EITHER an F150 Super Cab, or a RAM 1500 Quad Cab. The F150 is far more comfortable, the Ram has better seat fabrics (but the interior plastics are a different story).
Either way, at least he didn't buy a Chebby...

We also had to have both front and all the middle seat covers replaced on the wifes old 04 Expy under warrenty as well. So Ford may have the best looking interior but their leather is crap as far as durablity goes.

Got my Consumer Reports yesterday.. They rated the Dodge Ram 1500 and 2500 as the WORST..6th Place out of 6.lol.. *Lows- Braking, Ride, Seat Comfort, Fit and Finish. Have you ever seen the interior in one of those things? ohh boy.. Maybe thats why the sad face.

Oh yeah, consumer reports, they said it, IT MUST BE TRUE!
Consumer reports talks based on who stuffs the most money in their pockets. They always rate whatever is new to be the best, no matter what.Oh and thumper, it was one of the most disgusting pictures ive ever seen, and a few other unlucky souls in the thread at the time. The site must of thought they owned the image, so what they did was when someone linked to it on a forum like this, the image that gets posted is diffrent from what you think your postng.

When you hotlink it from another site, you pirate their bandwidth. In other words, the other site would be charged for hosting the picture that was linked here if this site's traffic pushed them over their predetermined monthly bandwidth limit.
Some sites use a "no hotlinking" replacement photo and some sites pull a bit more sinister and embarassing stunt as you found out.

You clearly know not a thing about Consumer Reports and how they carry out their tests.
Moving along...
