He probably wants a truck that won't be a complete rattle-trap after a year driving up and down rig roads... hence the Super Duty recommendation

My 1500 wasn't after 94k miles, and I went down PLENTY of lease roads, and non-roads. However my new job I've got an office now, so no need.

I love my 13 fx extended cab. Interior is awesome and the tech is nice too.

5-6 year old used GM/Ford/Dodge 1/2 ton that you can throw away when the A/C goes out. Don't be a chump and get stuck with a $600+ truck payment every month on something that won't be worth jack shit by the time you pay it off.

GM w/6.2....they'll come off sticker a bunch. Gateway advertises 12,000 off all GMC trucks on their lot.

The gas mileage on the Ram is still it's downfall.....IMO.

How do you figure? In real life it matches or bests the 5.0 ford. We get nearly 20 cruising on the hwy in our 2010. I was driving a 2013 ford a couple weeks ago and barely got 16.5 all hwy. If you are comparing citty mpg it all comes down to the driver. They all suck in that regard.

i actually liked the chevy better, i didnt see any z71s in my prie range with the 6.2.. i think i would have liked that option over the ecoboost. this truck runs pretty good though, i cant conplain.

I've got an Uncle with an Ecoboost, he drives a lot. 90,000 in it already, he won't talk to me about cause I have him so much shit about buying a ford on top of a 6 cylinder. His is junk, stays in the shop more then he drives it. He says it pulls great, but the 8 mpg he gets sucks when pulling a load.

With this being said, his is the first year Ecoboost truck.
