They're supposed to be more reliable and have a much higher Resale.

The 5.3 is solid but I’d love a 6.2

What you will get in resale every other 1500 truck will makeup in fuel mileage so that argument is a wash....except the Titan.

Probably. I get exactly 15 mpg in my tundra. Houston driving so mix of traffic and interstate.

I traded in a 16 Silverado for a 19 RAM a couple weeks ago and I love it. The 5.7 Hemi is a freakin beast and I’m really surprised at the fuel mileage I’m getting out of it. Running 20.5-21 Hwy.

My 5.7 Ram pulls my bass boat like it doesn’t exist except it costs me a couple mpg

The notion that a Tundra is the only truck that can last 10 years is rather amusing!

Not that I want an eco diesel, why did you trade it in? Just curious.

How’s the back seat room in the RAM compared to ford?

Not even close. Stepdad got one last week and we ride around in the RAM It’s my next truck for sure. Very roomy in the back and very comfortable

Yallallcrazy was here last week in his Lariat. We measured doors. I don't remember the numbers, but it seems the new Rams have a smaller front door and larger rear door. I assume that means more rear room than the Ford.

Plenty. Mines a ‘16
I don’t do Fords so couldn’t tell you

I've driven Rams for the last 15 years and love them. Currently driving a 2020 Laramie and I couldn't be happier.

My last truck was a 09 ram. Currently have a 2017 F150. If there's a difference in rear seat room it's small enough that I can't tell.

I just found this article. If accurate, pretty damn impressive. LINK

The Ram REALLY impressed in quality and ride. The Hemi is a proven engine as well. I'd go with the Ram over the current F150.
By what measure?

Huge difference in the 09 RAMs and 2019 and up.

Tired of all the recalls, the lawsuits, and lots of people having blown engines and engine fires. I was lucky and didn't have any issues and was able to trade it in even with another recall on the EGR coolant which there is currently no fix.

don't know about the new ones. My Ram is a 2001 with 250,000 miles and still going strong

Get what you feel comfortable with, can afford with repairs factored in, and you are happy with.
No matter how good a product is if you don’t like it you will not be happy.
