True. All have there good points. Cummins motor far superior to either of the other American manufacturers. Lot of nice diesel Chevy in my neck of the woods but a lot are dead. Fords too. 90% of the logging company's here run dodges. I've owned all three and for sheer pulling power I'd put my dodge against any of the other brands.
I agree that all brands have there faults and my general impression is once the warrantee is gone they are all equally pricy to keep going over the years. I got my 06 dodge cummins in o9 for 25k and I now have close to 20k into it. Ouch!
I ask myself if I would have got a newer truck then for 45k where would I be now. I bet I would be around 55k, how can you know?
