for the most part I'm there with you mike...I've always been a mopar fan....but to be honest the Cummins was the deciding factor when it was time for the 8.0L to say goodbye. I looked at the competitions, didn't go with the Dmax because of things I heard and it having not been out that long. looked at ford but they had been changing their stuff up too much, I questioned the longevity of what they had done. so the Cummins in the dodge wound up being a no brainer...
with that said if the Cummins was in a Ford....I don't know what way I would have went...what dodge would be using would have to be DAMN good, as I said the Cummins was the BIGGEST deciding factor.
