Do adults ride in the back - or do children/adults ride in the back for long periods of time?
Huge difference in comfort in the rear seat of a Mega vs. QC.

(I don't know if the MC offers the rear under-seat storage that the QC does).

I would love a CTD MC but I would NEVER buy a HEMI MC. And MC rule over QCs all day.

there is more room behind the seat in a MC storage box than a under seat QC , plus the seats recline and fold flat so you can sleep in it if ya want to .

comparing a cummins to a hemi is night and day . i give you that but like i said with the proper gears and mods the hemi will hold its own . bottom line they are both 2500's . you just got to decide what engine you want . if you tow allot and drive long hwy trips cummins all the way .
i looked at the cummins in the MC but decided not to go that route based on the fact i dont drive my truck often , the cummins would get gummed up with sitting all the time , the hemi can sit for weeks no problems .
