I'll never understand the Dodge hate. Does it all stem from the POS 4 speed transmission from the 90s? My dad's 06 is a fantastic truck. My grandfather bought a new Dodge every year until he retired(every year for a write off). They ride better than Chevy, GMC, or Ford in my experience.
My 06 F150 V6 was a terrible truck.

Daimler could have had the 5.0 Cummins in the 1500 ram if they wanted it. They wanted to source their own motor, which as far as I know is a pretty good one. Having Cummins on the valve covers is the only thing that would have made that truck sell though.
The 2.8 cummins is what should be in these trucks. The 5.0 is too big and powerful and will have disappointing fuel economy and will stuff the engine bay to the point that maintenance is impossible. Too much focus on power IMO.

fwiw, VaGump
I've only driven mopara my whole life, now I just don't know what to do since the Dakota is gone.. I really don't want a full size pick up because I already have one for towing and just want a mid size for my daily driver
So, my choices basically come down to Ram 2500 or Colorado..
Right now it is Ram by a nose..
