You keep saying it is getting old or that you are sorry about talking bad about Dodges....but you don't seem to be able to stop posting about it?? It is not getting old at all, especially when you call our trucks a tin can. Why don't you do some research with all of your energy? You'll find out that Dodge uses heavier gauge sheet metal than ferd. You'd get a lot less hostile response from me if you talked about specific weaknesses instead of blanket statements that only discredit your opinion. I know that Dodge late models have transmission issues, but my F-250 went through 2 trannies. I had to re-build my PowerJoke 3 times before I gave up on it, my previous truck was a Dodge that I put 385,000 hard work miles on. The only reason I sold it was that I was tired of the body style ('74) I fell hook, line and sinker for that "Quality is Job One" bs from ferd. As far as getting off topic, you're the one that started this drivel, a forum is just that, a forum, look it up. "An open discussion of public matters".
Who is acting like a bunch of kids here? I see a lot of intelligent good natured posts. Many of us know each other, either through this forum or from Rallys and other events. It is OK to cut up once in a while, it is a manly way to say I respect you, without having to show emotion isn't it??? If we came here to read cut and dried technical reports, I do not think that the Forum would survive, or be as sucessful as it is.
I actualy like the fact that it is entertaining and informative at the same time. However I like a fair fight (not that this is one) so if you are having a hard time with this I'm sorry, but a good way to stop it is to read and re-read what you write before you post. If you don't post inflamatory lanuage you most likely will not get a response that makes you feel like you are on Jerry Springer. (You'll have to tell me what that is like, I've never been there). = )
