Well said. Back in the glory days 'competition' consisted of Dodge and GM, times have defintly changed and as more and more players enter the court the days of one supreme truck over all are gone. I look foward to the competition between all the names, should defintly produce better products for the buyer. I started with a Ranger, then Goldy, and now the F250, Love Ford, but I'm not brand loyal. Next truck will be a HeavyDuty Dodge.
People need to relax and enjoy the competition.
