This just might be the last truck I buy. What a beast! Loaded with damn near everything. 6.7 Cummins, 6 speed auto, 3:73 limited slip, 4x4, integrated brake controller, integrated exhaust brake, sunroof, navigation, Alpine system, heated and cooled seats, leather, power everything.

2010? i dont pay much attention to dodges so i cant really tell their years. sure is a nice tho. only thing i dont like is the tan along the rockers on the bottom and around the wheels. then again i dont like that on any pickup ;D. the things youll love are the integrated brake controller, and the heated/cooled leather seats (which the cooling thing is sooooo cool). we've got all those two things in our 09 F-150 and absolutely love them.

yep, 2010. I wanted solid black, but there wasn't one in any of the surrounding states. Then I got to thinking that with all the gravel oil field roads that the lower rocker color would hide the chips in the paint better. But its growing on me. I am thinking 4 inches of lift and 22's would look sweet!

Yeah, I had the '06 white megacab making a few extra ponies. I put everything back to stock on the mega except the exhaust. When I traded it in, the guy asked what was laying in the bed of the truck. I said that is the muffler, it only has 100 miles on it. He said you took it off right away. I said yep, and I'd like my new one the same way please.

And it just gets better. Pulling with a dually is awesome. My last Dodge diesel was a one ton with single rear wheels. The dually is as stable as can be. I am not so sure I will ever put a tuner on this truck. Its never short on power. I was pulling a 68 imperial home the other day with the cruise set on 75 and she just walked up the long hills on the interstate. No downshifting or nothing. Beat many a newer Ford to the top of the hill. LOL

Yeah, the new ford Scorpion sounds good. Hopefully it works out for them. The last few years for Ford diesels sucked ass. If Ford had a Cummins, I would own one in a heartbeat. I like Ford trucks. But I do think the newest Fords are kind of ugly.

yea im not sure how well the 6.4 was liked but the 6.0 was a flop. Ive driven an '01 with the 7.3 and an '03 with the 6.0 and the 6.0 had alot more power, but alot alot alot more problems. and yes i do agree the newest ones are kinda ugly. at first i wasnt a fan of the 09 f-150s but ours has really grown on me. i think the front fenders and the hood are too short...they especially look dumb on the 3/4 ton & 1 ton. my dad is wanting to replace our 2000 chevy dually (7.4 vortec) because its a load when pulling our water tanks for the sprayer (about 3100 gallons) with a diesel. he would like a ford but doesnt want to risk it with the 6.0 diesel so he was thinking about a dodge.
