Verizon continues to provide the best customer service and best reception in the cell phone industry. However, as more and more towers get put in, Verizon's coverage advantage is diminishing. It's getting less and less practical to pay the higher cost of Verizon for less and less added benefit.
Ford's vehicles tend to be less reliable, and their F-series trucks are embarrassingly overpriced. Ford trucks used to be great, but then they discontinued the 7.3 liter in 2003. Ram now has a better diesel engine and are about $10k less than a similar sized Ford.
It's not hard... -
After all that sweet FREE PUB Christine Blasey gave them?

I 'm just glad hondo cares about manufacturing jobs again

I bought a new truck a while back. I like diesels. He's right the Ford was substantially more than the Ram I bought. I'm usually a Chevy guy but the mega cab and the Cummins motor are a hell of a combo.creepycoug said:

Other than the fact the Cummins is slower and gets less mileage than Chevy and Ford.Sledog said:

We finally agree on something. I like diesels too. Fuck anyone who does not.Sledog said:

But I have a thing against Dodge/Kreisler. It stems from the old days when they were known to be the coldest starting sum bitches on the market. Irrational, I know. But brand loyalty/hatred is a bitch. First impressions and all.
It's safe to say I will likely never own a Dodge ever. -
I'm not trying to take people off the line, and I still get 20 mpg right now, which is the same gas mileage I got in my Tacoma, so I'm happy. Good luck getting cylinder work done on a newer Ford, unless you like having to lift the entire cab.2001400ex said:

Nope. Better mileage than my non smog duramax LB7. 20 to 22mpg highway rolling 80. It does have 3.42's not 3.73's.2001400ex said:

Well the only powerstroke that had real issues like that was the 6.0. I had one and traded it off as the head gasket was about to go. The 6.4 and 6.7 powerstroke have their issues (as all pickups do) but not many need their cabs lifted. I'm still in my 08 Duramax with a tune and EGR/dpf fix. I'm looking for a new one in 2020.
I do like what ram is doing and that big screen that'll be out in 2020 on the HDs looks cool. But they are just so much slower. I pull 14,000 pounds regularly over mountain passes. -
I'm still awaiting the day I see a truck with anything in the bed of it. Those truck nutz look sic though

Ram 3500 with the AISIN trans vets 900ft lbs of torque. They tow great. Tuners available as well. Your burger stand weighs 14k or your house?2001400ex said:

The tariffs affect every manufacturer. Sounds like they just need a scapegoat for their shitty cars.

Ford announced some time ago they were going to stop making cars altogether focusing instead on Trucks and SUV’s
Even Hondo knows this. -
