I wouldn't be scared of the Dodge. I was a die hard Ford guy until I bought my 2004 6.0 diesel. At 35,000 miles it was bucking and blowing black smoke. The dealership "cleaned" the turbo and all was well except my confidence. I traded it in on a new 2006 Dodge 5.9 and really like the truck. I have had to replace the ball joints (60,000 miles) and axle U joints (75,000) but other than that it has been solid. I now have 91,000 on it. I have friends with the 6.7 and they all seem happy.
