PARADOX

Nice looking boat .. Ca$h. I won't get into my close call.

Brian. Thanks for the links. It's bad enough looking for a boat all over the globe, I think I will stick to Fla for a truck.
I did talk to the owner of the Formula. Sounds nice, but the 496's ? Just like some more HP's.. Will see.

I had a 02 3500 8.1 gas dually that pulled good, but got about 6 mpg. I sold it.

I think the new Dodge duallys look cooler than chit, but I hear that their resale values are really bad.

Go diesel or you'll regret it everytime you tow. My .02

Lets be honest folks!!!! All three manufactures make a darn good truck, but I think each one has their own target market.
I ended up buying a GMC 2500HD because my wife liked the interior comfort of the seats for long distance trips with the boat. I liked the Dodge because of the 5.9 diesel (Ilike the straight six idea). I also liked the Ford because of the styling and price point.
I would pick the truck that best suits your personel wants and needs. Like I said they are all good trucks, I would test drive them all. I would opt for the diesel instead of gas. The price of diesel is more right now, but your mileage will be better than a gas motor, and they pull like no one's business. Resale is better also. Just my 2-cents

it does say alot but thoese stats suck.. Ford is really the only one that makes a real commercial truck.. Dodge just released a new 4500 but im not sure how its going yet.
