Hi Matt,
I must admit that most of my data is self knowledge and anedotal, based upon my Dodge, ferd and gm truck experiences dating back to 1953. In addition most peoples perception of Dodge was formed in the late 70's to mid 80's, when frankly Dodge didn't make the grade.
As for consumer reports, they have an anti-business, anti American bias that loves imports but is very hard on American manufacturers. My data came from JD Powers, there were two reports the dates of which I cannot recall, but I think they have a web site (??). One was JD Powers, customer satisfaction, which Dodge won and the second was largest percentage of Trucks on the road over a 10 year span. Again Dodge. (gm likes to play a little game here by saying that they have the most trucks on the road after 10 years, well duh, they sold the most trucks until the early 90's, and since ferd now outsells them, they dropped that claim)
FYI, Dodge Ram is the third best selling vehicle, up from 5th last year and now outselling Camry and Accord. Based upon 2003 sales, they have a good chance to catch gm this year! (they already out-sell chevy but chevy and gm combine sales, because it is basically the same truck.
Did I see Tug boat saying that Drivel desn't belong here?? ha!ha! I thought we finaly got past that with MoparGleen crowning me th eKing of Drivel!! ha!ha!
My last experience with ferd was horendous, all of my Dodge trucks have been exceptional. You can get a lemon with any brand and an excellent truck with any brand, although the law of averages now favors Dodge. Mopar inovation, Mercedes quality control, how can you lose??
FYI, about your "crowd" that you run with,...try to find some mor eintellegent friends! ha!ha! Good post, the facts need to be known!
