One reason you would buy another Dodge.

Other than the bulletproof engine and drivetrain, I like the interior styling better than fords and chev. Although the quad cab could be a bigger crew cab, i like the heated leather seats and the bluetooth handsfree for my phone with the caller id in the stereo, really cool feature. Ease of modification, and available accessories is nice too. Theres just so much more you can do to a dodge thats actually functional and looks good.

Dollar for dollar Dodge W/ Cummins engine is the best deal out there.I've owned Chevy all my life.This is my first Dodge.Actually look forward to the morning drive to work.Sound of the turbo spooling up is PRICELESS!Quality is just as good as the others.Test drove a Duramax.Thought I was driving a station wagon.

Price ultimately paid....chevy and ford didn't even want to talk about #'s beyond sticker less factory rebate.
Its a truck....not a car in a truck's clothing. Solid Axle, solid drivetrain, built to last.
Size matters. When you climb into this thing folks first impression is to say WOW this thing is huge inside. **** right.
Power and capacity. There ain't much I can't do with this truck
Fuel efficiency...my parents got a duramax and it got 10-12 mpg for the first 60K now just getting up into the mid teens. My 5.9 cummins got nearly 20 mpg coming home from the dealer fresh outta the box.

I believe the build quality and reliability are superior to a Chev. My truck has over 230,000 km with still the original starter and alternator. Try that with a Chev. If a Ford came with Cummins power, I'd consider it.

Engine and price. This was the cheapest and the one with the engine I could rely on.
My last Dodge fell apart around the motor. I dont expect it to last forever...but it was the cheapest of the three and should last as long as the other two.

Avoided a wreck hopped a curb while skidding at 60 mph sideways slid towards the woods stopped it put it in 4 wheel climbed out and drove another 4 hours that weekend. Nothing but a tire was hurt. The 150 i had would have either flipped or broke the wheels.

I'm subscribed, so I know I've posted at least once in this thread.
Only for the CTD. And what I mean by that is if the CTD came in a Ferd or a Chebby that is the truck I'd be driving!
That said, if I knew I could get something as good as my '03 next time I like the whole truck!
