I know that the emissions is what made Ford change to the 6.0 and then the 6.4 or 6.7...whatever, but they are improving. The 7.3 was bulletproof and a strong puller.
The ride and suspension and especially the frame of a Ford is better than the Chev. The Dodge is a very respectable and reliable vehicle and has its disadvantages as well such as rear seating compared to the F Series.
My friend bought a brand new Dodge 4X4 last year and it hauled ok, but got lousy mileage! He traded for a slightly older F-350 Dually with a 6.7 and I have driven it and towed with it. Let me tell you it is an awesome vehicle. Nicely loaded and maxed out with options and a great tow vehicle...
