guys... I am going to do an extended test drive of a 5.0 v8. It might have been the ecoboost that is throwing me off since i am more accustomed to the linear and smooth acceleration of a naturally aspirated engine. Now that i know who my friends are, i thought you might enjoy a little of my sense of humor. Enjoy!
Oh, and don't forget to check your tire pressure while you are inflating your date in the back of your truck.

I don't find the Eco Boost power as twitchy although I've been driving them for years!!!The 2017 and 2018 3.5L Eco Boost does have 470 lb.ft of torque that would feel twitchy if not used to it just saying!!The Ram might ride good but the rear coil spring setup isn't the greatest for payload or towing!!The 6.2L GM is only offered in the higher optioned trucks IIRC!!So if you aren't going to be towing heavy loads IMO sounds like none of the GM,Ford,Toyota and Ram trucks are for you!!!

Did you not say you didn't like the ride of the F-150 why would the 5.0 make the ride any different?
LOL.... apparently you are easily offended and your sense of self-worth is tied directly to the truck you drive. Pretty dopey way to stumble through life. All the time you are spending editing and re-editing your post to make yourself look superior could be better spent in therapy to discover why a negative review of an inanimate object causes you such consternation. Very odd.
Not even close. Just showing how you're wasting everyone's time, including the salesman's who is never going to make a dime off you.

I think you should definitely start a new thread for that review.
Dude, JoeFriday, you gotta get over the hemi tick and if you like the RAM just go buy one! I've had mine three years since it was brand new and knock on wood never had the hemi tick. Personally I would suggest the 5.0, never understood anything less than a V8 in a full size truck no offense to anyone that has the ecoboost, but go back and drive the RAM again and compare it with the 5.0 F150 and then make a final decision from there. When I was truck shopping in 2015 I was coming from a chevy and couldn't stand the new body style and really liked the look of the new f150 that had just come out as well I always loving the Ram style, so I looked at both. The Ford dealer wouldn't budge on the price so I decided to take a chance with the Ram truck, glad I did as it's honestly been one of the best trucks I've owned! The Dodge service has been mediocre though compared to chevrolet and ford from the past. Other than that it seems like the smoothest riding and one of the best looking trucks out there. I have the Ram Sport 4x4, so not sure what look you are after but it is a tough looking truck and I get compliments on it alot, although I do have it leveled with bigger tires. I'm sure you will not go wrong either truck you choose.
I gotta say, between this forum and the GM trucks forum I lurked on before deciding which truck to buy, I'm not sure which was full of more people that got butthurt when their brand of truck was criticized. I'm glad a few on here can be grownups and accept that nobody makes a perfect 1/2 ton. I see nothing wrong with threads like this, especially when the OP has legitimate points and has an open mind and isn't just brand bashing. If you don't like what he's saying, then stay out of the thread. You say he's wasting people's time, yet you're taking the time to reply, thus wasting the rest of our time reading your BS.
