    Went from a 2021 F350 to a 2020 megacab Ram. Both diesel. And the Ford is faster. But pulling, the Ram feels better. More stable and just feel more grounded. My wife even made the comment about the Ram just feeling better and safer than the Ford Not to mention much better braking power..
    To clarify, I never felt unsafe in the Ford. But it's clear what tows better in regards of handling, power feel and hills. It's the Ram. Also the Ram is definitely more comfortable. I think going fast is just a boyish thinking. Men want to stop and control loads and take hills at comfortable speeds. I drove semi for 10 years and I definitly want safety over speedy pulling. Too many do that today....

    I don’t care what anyone says. I had a 2023 Chevy 2500. It was a custom. The comfort compared to ram was not there. I had the Chevy for 7 months. Traded it for a ram 23. Yes I can tell the ram is definitely slower then the v8 Chevy but it’s definitely way more comfortable. I think it even drives better and has better turning radius. Can’t deny Chevy and fords v8s but it’s hard to beat that inline 6 and engine break on the ram. Yes ram definitely needs a redesign but as far as I’m concerned they still have the best interior 6 years in a row. Hopefully in 2025 they redesign and can take their first place throne back.

    I’ve noticed as our 23 Ram is breaking in, the fuel mileage gets better and better. Up over 23 mpg on the last 120 mile round trip (mostly flat). A good video to make next might be a reliability comparison. This involves collecting data from other sources. I feel like the Ram 6.7/68rfe is tried and true. It isn’t going to break any records but It just works. The Powerstroke is definitely more powerful but several people I know with the last few model years are having reliability issues. They’re all maintenance freaks so I don’t think it neglect. Overall, I liked the value we got in our 23 2500 4d 4wd Tradesman. I love the vinyl seats (they look like leather to me) and the simplicity. A comparably equipped Powerstroke was $10k more. But arguably that Powerstroke is more capable… I just don’t need all of that power (and potential mechanical issues) for pulling a fairly light fifth wheel. The exhaust brake on the Ram is absolutely amazing. 2 cents.

      Ram has good value. But id skip the 2500 for the 3500 with the h.o. with aisin transmission. Otherwise i don’t think its even very comparable to the ford/ bcuz the 68rfe is not the greatest in reliability with heavy towing.

    As far as being “dated”…….new only last until the ink on the paper dries. Kind of like the old adage “Beauty is only skin deep”! Reality is we here in the USA think we have to look good in front of a bunch of strangers. Buying something one doesn’t need with money they don’t have to impress people they don’t know.
    Had plenty of Fords over the years, got decent service out of most of them until the CP4 injection pump went south and parts were on national backorder. Had a tough time trusting one after that. Now have an ‘18 RAM 3500 DRW CTD HO w/ the AISIN and couldn’t be happier. It has absolutely no trouble doing the speed limit even with my 18000 pound triple axle Raptor in tow. Although I generally just set the cruise at 67-68 MPH and let ‘er chug. Doesn’t need a 10 speed transmission, exhaust braking is great. Actually feels more planted than the 350 Ford DRW did. But, to each their own. All three are pretty damn good trucks any more.

I must admit I've yet to see a person standing by my destination with a checkered flag but I always get to my destination without any drama. I'm perplexed why all these various comparisons (you and others) between the brands always focus on zero to whatever speed times. Hook them up to a 15K load and run up and down some mountain passes and do some flat towing in the desert. Then tell me which brand does the best in handling, braking, comfort, and MPG.

It brings the cost down on the HO models because it becomes the normal motor and transmission.

That's sad, that's 12 yrs of the same power level. They're not the Dodge Ram trucks of the early and mid 2000's that brought the fight to the other 2 big manufacturers that earned them a place of respect. I have owned 4 Dodge Cummins 1999, I refuse to buy equipment from someone who doesn't try to continue to raise the bar in the diesel market. I buy a diesel not to virtue signal, but to actually use it pulling my work trailers with. Dodge also lost me when they dropped the "Dodge" name from their trucks, that SOB was a "Dodge" long before the "Ram" got added on. I'll never buy a "Ram", I'll go buy a brand X simply for that reason. Maybe why their beginning to lag so far behind in the truck wars.

    The Engine Brake is adjustable on Ford as well… can be higher than video test.
    Ram /Cummins has been top notch… hasn’t improved much last few years while emission systems have been getting heavier… this is another variable Ford seems to be advancing.

    If I wanted to spend 100k on something fast I wouldn't buy a truck because there are better options now if I wanted to haul or tow something well I'll buy an older truck and save the money. The only way I would spend 100k on a truck would be if I won lottery and considering I don't play the chances of that happening are nill.

    i hope it is obvious to people here that such a short fuel economy test using the trucks computer means next to nothing. I know he can't take brand new trucks he doesnt own and do a full tank of similar driving but that is where you get some useful data. Brand new trucks that are not broken in at all will be different than those trucks at 20k miles. Cummins inline 6 leaves plenty of space for exhaust brake and why it will always outperform a V8 brake.

    It’s not even a contest. Ram threw a big screen in their truck but made no changes to the body or power train and called it 5th gen. It’s laziness. Their exterior is dated.

      Agreed. Ram has been slacking big time ever since they slapped the big screen. The cab, even though it’s a 4th gen isn’t too bad, F series cab has more room overall but not by much. Powertrain is no contest performance wise, though the Powerstroke’s exhaust brake is not as effective as what’s in the Cummins.

So yeah 10 speed makes that easily possible. The truck unloaded gets 20 mpg pretty easy. Light trailer can do 15 pretty easy as it does it effortlessly/doesn’t have to strain.

Their new so called 5th Gen is nothing but a 4th Gen with some lipstick. Why do they keep using that dang 68RFE! Get it out of there and get us a bulletproof 10 speed along with putting the HO in the 3/4 tons and we’ll own the market. Ram has had the best interior for years but still can’t put a panoramic sunroof in their heavy duty’s? As for the cab size though I am 6’3” and 350 lbs and find the cab is plenty roomy for even me. I’ll be sticking with my 16’ Ram 2500 until they do a complete redesign or I find myself over at the Ford store though I just really don’t want a truck with 55 gallon drums for headlights.

      Same, I've had 3 of them. A 2008, 2011 and now a 2021. I love their interiors above Ford and Chevy. Ford is a close second though and I've just never been a fan of the Chevy interior. As far as the exterior of the 5th gen goes I think it looks amazing. You're spot on with those Ford headlights. They're huge! Plus I think the front end of Fords look like blocks. The 68RFE has been updated throughout the years and has gotten better but it is time for a new transmission in those. The 68 I had in my 2011 was still alive after 60% over injectors and an S465 for 3 years when I traded it in. I'd probably own a Ford this go around just for something different. But to find the equivalent trim to my 21 Laramie Night edition Ram was so much more expensive. Plus I know Rams well now. I know where everything is located under the hood and body.

      The "crappy Chrysler" trans (68rfe) was co designed by GM & Ford. Chrysler was contracted to build them (they are ran in multiple brands). So I believe you're saying NO Way to the Ram because Ford & GM hasn't been able to design a trans the Cummins won't shred. And maybe Ram should not run them. The Aisin is a Toyota transmission for their commercial trucks. As a Ram owner of multiple HD trucks, it's all about the Cummins, not the badge. If they made a Tundra HD with the 6.7 Cummins it would be game over for the big three. Probably why we'll never seen one.
