Ford F-250 or Dodge 2500???

I heard the only way you could hurt a Cummings engine was to stick a Dodge tranny on it.

That's my 2 cents :uh:

So would you rather be cummin or strokin?

More than one person has wanted to drive a cummins but the only way to get one was to buy it wrapped in a Dodge.

I think I am going with the Ford. No one has had anything bad to say about the Ford, plus I have always had good luck with my Fords, and I really don't like the idea of the unibody frame crap.

I see an awful lot of dodges pulling hot shots not many fords. A lot of fords pulling campers.

Thast fine with me, I want the ablilty to pull anyting and it sounds like thats what a Ford can do for me.

Go with the Ford if you want a quality truck that will last a long time. I am a fan of Cummins engines, but I wouldn't buy anything from Dodge except maybe a Viper. I come from an area with a lot of agriculture, and most all of the farm work trucks are Fords.

Beware the dreaded 'cackle'.... No I can't explain it - only heard/read about it. The earlier PowerStroke powered trucks had problems with flexplates from what I've been told.

Each brand has it's achilles heel. Either one will serve 99% of your needs w/o any problems.
