I'm not surprised that Ram won over Chevy. 8 speed auto, 3.0L diesel (26MPG for 4x4 crew), air ride suspension for better highway mileage and off road clearance. That's some pretty cool stuff. I can tell you that I had a chance to sit in one and the dial shifter for the tranny is whack. It would definitely take some getting used to (reminds me of the old push button transmissions - LOL).
With my off road hobby, I have friends with every one of the full size offerings. We have campfire talk about the pro's and con's of each. Everyone seems pretty happy with what they have, except for the guy with the Nissan who has had rear end issues a couple of times. That should go away when they come out with the 5.0L Cummins though, as they'll upgrade the rear axle too.
