[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 2691894, member: 27991"] You really are comparing apples and oranges, 3/4 V8 to 1/2 V6. 1. The 6.4 Hemi is way better than the 5.7, when loaded down or towing. 2. Ford 6.2 in 3/4 ton will out pull and better mileage than either Ram. 3. Ford 5.4 in 1/2 ton will do what you have requested. 4. Ford interior better. IMO, Ram looks cheap. 5. Ford seats more comfortable. 6. Ram is usually cheaper, get what you pay for. I have F-150 5.4, 160k, regularly pull horse trailer, no problems. Son has Ram 1500, 5.7, gets worse mileage than I do whether empty or with trailer. He can take me off the line, but that is not my priority, anymore. Son has Ram 2500, 6.4, good power, trailer towing, drinks gas. FIL has F250 6.2, good mileage, good power, great towing. My next truck, this year, will be F250 6.2gas, 4x4, crew cab. If initial price is #1 concern, then Ram is probably your choice. Over all price and satisfaction of ownership, I choose Ford. Wichita Ford has 2015 6.2, XLT, 4x4, crew cab, cloth seats in the $40k range, several to choose Vernon Ford has same and includes LIFETIME power train warranty. Well loaded $43k. [/QUOTE]
