I traded in a 2004 Ram 1500 4X4 hemi quad cab for my '07 F-150. There were things about the Ram I miss, but overall I'm not looking back. Truthfully the hemi only got about 1mpg worse than I'm getting with the supercrew......1mpg I'd gladly trade back to have the power the hemi did. The seats were a hell of a lot better too.
Ride and handling, as well as interior quality just cannot compare though. Both are very good trucks.

My buddy has an '07 2500 4x4 cummins 4door. The interior sucks and looks like it's out of the 70s. And the back seat is small compared to my SCREW.
You bought what you wanted, and that's great. But I looked at the dodge when I was looking at my truck and it's a pos (excluding the power) in comparison IMO.
TO THE GUY ABOVE RESIZE THAT ****! It's kinda big!

But as far as the interior qualities... Ford's got'em beat by a long shot. I still can't believe how comfortable my seats are compared to that Escape and my '99. However, those seats on the Escape were a complete joke... seriously. I can't believe I owned that hideous thing. I dunno what compelled me to buy that Escape. Totally freakin' fugly.
What ticks me off is that instead of spending 26k on an Escape... I could have gotten a '03 F150 5.4l Scab 4x4 XLT with black leather for 25k at the time... still ticks me off.
But I can't undo time.

When I first got my Ford, I thought the seats were the most comfortable seats ever, but whenI go on long drives(3hrs plus) I got sore. Just got back from a 3hr trip in the Dodge and the leather seats didnt make me sore at all. But I do have to tell you, those Fords seats suprised the crap out of the first time I sat in them

I'm debating on just clicking that damn ignore button or just continue to make fun of him.

How much do you weigh? (Not trying to be offensive or make fun of you...)
The more weight you put on the seat over time it will tend to loose it's supportive abilities out of the cushion.
