I see Dodge stole a little something from Chevy's playbook with those storage areas in the fenders. I've always liked Dodge's styling over fords. I do like Ford's interior shots though.

+1 Ford. It's very nice, inside and out. I think that darn ram's head looks terribly gaudy on the Ram...


On a side note: keep an eye out for the new Nissan Titan; because you'll be looking at a reskinned Dodge Ram..........................

For those that don't know, the Ram gets the upgraded 5.7 VCT HEMI pushing 390 Horses and 400 of torque ( I think not sure) and it has an improved version of the MDS that runs the Hemi around 23 MPG hwy ( not sure of street) and the same boring 5 speed auto stick, Chrysler is on ball

And Dragon........I hope your wrong on the Titan thing, that will suck

I have to agree, the dodge wins hands down. Best looking dodge in a long time in my opinion.. The ford looks like someone beat it with an ugly stick...

The new Ram will win truck of the year next year...not that it matters. The new redesign is great.

In this case, I do like the Ford interior, but the Dodge has a great overall feel that is somewhat familiar. I'm guessing the familiarity is due to Dodge's design, sometimes very similar to Chevrolet.

FORD all the way if it wasnt for the new Maro I'd be driving a Mustang. BTW I live the F-150s, personally the greatest trucks ever.

Really they are both nice. Hard to believe that anyone would even consider a Jap truck with the quality both inside and out as well as design of the Chevy's, Ford's and Dodge trucks. Toyota does not even come close.
