Saw a 2015 Colorado today...and wasn't impressed at all, but then again it's a Chebby.

 

First of all comparing MSRP prices does not mean anything and second you can purchase a 2015 Longhorn ED 4 wheel drive for less than $44k. Where can you find an equally equipped 2015 Lariat for that price?

Where can you find a Ford that was built by FIAT? Yeah, I went there.

 

I sat in a 15 dodge 1500 yesterday. The interior was on par with the ford imo and the adjustable air ride was really cool. The Hemi is a great motor also and it was 43k (sell price about 51k Msrp) for a vet well equipped Laramie. All of that makes it tempting but I just can't stand the hood and exterior. Imo the F150 is a much better looking truck. Just hate that they are so expensive!

 

If you feel like trolling your friend, look at the payload on the yellow sticker in his door jamb. Then look at yours. Then laugh at him. Repeat.

 

i said it before and I'll say it again, I test drove the ram and loved it. Heck, my friend thinks im crazy for buying the f150, but the f150 is just that much more capable work wise.

The ram is great for light truck stuff, I regularly put 2000 LBS in my truck of slatwall or other items. The ram would never handle that. Also, where I live it gets really cold this time of year. I heard the air suspension messes up in really cold weather, go figure.
Their beloved ecodiesel is an old fiat designed engine that they shipped over to north america to say they have a diesel in their 1500, but it's not enough hp to move it well. I will give it to those italians, they made the interior of those chryslers really nice. What can I say, we have good taste LoL. Ford did step up on their interiors for 2015 and that's what made me pull the trigger. If it would have had a cheap interior like the previous model, I would have gone for the ram and a trailer.

 

parents have a 2014 ram hemi....quad cab
its has tons of them little ram icons inside in case you forget your driving a ram.
it rides very much like my old 1967 pontiac catalina, but throw anything in the bed and it squats bad and feels squirmishly soft and dangerous....
i will say the passenger seat is pretty comfy
but the dash scares the hell out me with them ram things everywhere, what if we have a wreck and my head bangs the dash
them we have ugly ram thing imprinted on me OMG
lots of storage inside...but the doors are to plasticky

 

My brother I'm law had a Hemi. He let me drive it....felt heavy and had a floating ride like suspension (no air suspension). Felt alright when you had to get on it, but not exciting. Theirs no way that boat anchors stays up with the F150, ...especially from the seat of the pants meter. My brother in law sold it....enough said.

 

wow..@ 90 mpg more..I'm gonna buy the ram..thanks for doing the math!

 

Lol. That's some top notch math right there, almost had me talked into a Ram!
