I have actually driven all three trucks. The new F150, a new silverado, the new titan. I checked each one of them. From prices to ride to the engine to just about everything that I wanted out of a truck. To me the FOrd was too much like a car. The Chevy was just plain ugly. So it boiled down to the ram and the titan. Obviously You know which choice I made. But the only reason I went with the ram is becuase I know it has been established. I know what kind of reliability it has had. Yes Nissan has good reliabilty, but does the Titan?

If I had the MPG numbers on me, i'd post those too.

and on the commercial, i think the same thing too- the dodge and ford look the same, ford's is just taller...whooptydoo. That means Dodge's is better for off-roading, it being smaller, it will flex better.
