Why do you have the model you do????
 

I am a lifer Ford guy I will admit, I have friends with dodges and chevys and have driven/ridden and towed with all 3 makes. As much as I like the "perks" of the other brands I can't force myself to give up my Ford!

I have come up with my conclusion as to why people buy one or the other make...

FORD - People like me buy a Ford cause it's a Truck. Hands down the best chassis available up to 2012 models....GM and Dodge are gaining now though.

GM - People buy GM's for ride comfort and gas engine fuel economy, or because it has an ALLISON transmission.

DODGE - CUMMINS CUMMINS CUMMINS!!!! That pretty much sums it up.

I got to thinking about this today after a dodge owner tried to start an argument by bashing my 6.0 while we were both fueling up. I laughed it off and went about my business.

But it got me thinking, why do I always buy Fords....well because I work the heck out of my trucks, and Fords have always taken the beatings well for me. I like my truck to be a truck and for me that is a Ford! Obviously since I have a 6.0 :shakehead: I don't care what engine is in it, I just love the chassis.

I am not bashing any other make, I like trucks in general.

So how bout you? Why do you drive a Ford or GM or Dodge??????

I guess i just stuck with Ford since thats what my dad always had so i always bought em myself.

:insane: Chicks dig Dodge! Nuf said


In all honesty...I've owned them all. Dodge has always been more reliable and more confortable to me.

Perfect example of why there are choices! How boring it would be if there was only 1 choice huh!

I will openly admit...I have never owned a gm, no specific reason, just never have. I have had a dodge, 99 2500 with a 5.9 v8. It was a solid truck other then the tranny went out twice in 45k miles of my abuse.

I have never not had at least 1 Ford though.
Also had a 67 dodge d350 dump truck.......now that was a truck!!!!

I hate dodges a far as the body I buy them for the cummins I think they look good but the transmissions are mostly junk and there wiring is awful same with there steering

Well then you should put that sweet cummins you just built in a Superduty!!:leghump:

My dad has always had fords and i like the looks of them he now owns a dodge and misses his ford, plus i boght what i wanted lol

Shhhhh don't tell anybody but I would really like to I love the way a ford is built body and frame wise but I really like the look of my second gen too no doubt though if I found one cheap I would be the proud new owner of a fummins

I think in general most would agree....ford has the best chassis, dodge has the best engine, and gm has the best creature comfort. Although each year all 3 seem to even out more and more!

I like the 3rd gen dodge bodies, if I could force myself to I would buy an 04-06 dodge next......never know it may just happen, but I will keep one of my Fords always!

That's what matters!!! As long as you love your truck it doesn't matter what anybody else thinks. That's what I figured when the guy wanted to rag on my 6.0.......I LOVE the 6.0 engine so who cares what he says.
