I bought a new 2008 Ford 350 4x4 dually about 1 1/2 years ago, and have been extremely happy with it. It's smooth, powerful, and quiet. The problems were worked out very early in the production run, and they have been very reliable since, a big improvement over the 6.0. I was happy with the 2000 I traded for it, but there is a night-and-day difference between the two, mostly in ride quality, noise, and power. I've got 20K on it now, and pull 10-12 tons with it about every weekend. Milage is no worse than the 2000, and if I drive it right, it will get 18-19 empty. Not bad for an 8500lb truck. I have nothing against the Cummins in the Dodges, but I just don't like the rest of the truck. I'm definately not a fan of the GM's- aluminum heads don't belong on a diesel, and I wouldn't buy anything from a company run by the government, especially Obammy. I've done some reading on the new (non IH) 6.7 Scorpian diesel coming out in the 2010 Fords, and it sounds like a beast. Might be worth waiting for, although the 6.4 has worked out well. Go drive the Ford and see what you think. Mine's a loaded Lariet, and I'd rather drive it than the wife's '08 Charger. It's definately the most comfortable truck I've ever driven.
