Ok sure.. Well just like everyone else, your entitled to your opinion. Without a doubt the Ford would be the ultimate truck if it had a cummins I6 imo. But it doesn't. Brand new Dodges are nice imo and they have a badass, HD motors. Thats kinda the heart of a HD truck i feel like.. maybe also the reason one might buy one. Imagine.. buying a heavy duty truck because its heavy duty?!?
Oh that's smart. Yea

Exactly. I haven't heard great things about the 6.7 Cummins. A lot of Dodge guys that traded their 5.9 for the 6.7 are regretting it. I know the 6.7 makes better HP\Trq than the 5.9, but like most new technology diesels, the mpg's took a big hit and they're not as reliable. I guess it's due to all the emissions and bs?
He bought it used with 77k last April. Mint Laramie

Yea all the emissions bs sucks, government is killing the auto industry.. By like 2025, i believe they want all vehicles to get 65ish mpg or something crazy.. it sucks.. there is a ton of oil in this country... but thats a different discussion i guess haha
