I like all 3 trucks.. Fords have gotten too expensive.. Silverados are nice, but perfer a gmc 2500.. If, and mean if I ever get a new diesel truck, im getting a ram 2500 longhorn edition. Truck is nice, and the price tag is reasonable.

those new dodge interiors are crazy nice, and they are given them away. Had a couple as crew trucks tho and the fuel mileage is ridiculous compared to the other two trucks. Im diggin the GMC Denali HD.
