Interior....absolute garbage. Motor ect. Bulletproof.
2000 ram 2500 dually. Once again bunk ass interior but strong motor and tranny. Never a problem.
2002 dodge ram ecrb 360 motor. Bought with 24k on clock. Window motor driver side went out. Latch on sliding glass broke the first times used it. Arm rest was already caved in because the cardboard under filament is paper mâché thin. C clip broke off valve body & threw code. Took to dealership as it wouldn't shift out of 1st and told I needed new transmission. I went home Hooked up obd scanner and turns out it was the speed governor sensor. $60 + $120 labor and back on the road. Various other interior fails...sagging headliner, two broken visor clips. Driver side broke the day I bought it. Absolute lemon.
2004 2500 ram ecrb. Tranny out 19k. Tranny out 36k sold.
2006 2500 ram eclb. Tranny slipping at 46k....bought at 29k sold.
2008 2500 HD Silverado. Bought with 23k bone stock. Put this truck threw absolute hell and back pushing a couple hundred hp over the tranny rating only limping it once. 68k on the clock now. Replaced 1 glow plug at 59k. Never seen the repair shop.
Best truck I've ever owned. My dad was a lifelong dodge man and I grew up being the same way. Can easily say I'll never go back. The best thing the hd series with dodge was the ho 5.9 cummins motor. Now that they have the 6.7. Oh hell naw. Jmuo.
I hate ford but on our farm trucks it was always the OLD fords and Chevys that lasted. Hell I still put out hay in a ooooold ford with a 3 spd. Damn thing won't die.

Our farm trucks are all GMCs. 2002 GMC Sierra 3500 Duramax flat bed, 2007 GMC 3500 Duramax dually, and 2005 GMC Sierra crew cab short bed 4x4 Duramax. All good trucks with crappy speedo' gauge shields that cracked for some reason, not on the 2007 so far. We also have a 2007 Ram 2500 Cummins 4x4 megacab which is my dad's personal vehicle/ ranching truck. I have a 2004 Ram 1500 Hemi Sport 4x4 and my Camaro.
Absolutely no Fords, not even little white Ford rangers for our ranch hands. They get to drive the 1992 Chevy 1/2 ton W/T long bed 4x2 w/ v6 to run airons. (This one is kinda a pos with over 200k miles).
