Stam-I was referring to the thickness and girth of the springs, axle, and shocks.

The only reason I ended up choosing Ford over Dodge was more brand familiarity with Ford/International vs Dodge/Cummins.
It was close though. Consumer Reports also swayed me. I already had an experience with both GM & the Co that makes Chevy's Diesel, and wouldn't touch them again. Allison Transmissions just aren't enough to make them worth it.

Toyota's just fine, I come from a 'Yota family, and the reasons I didn't get a Tundra was my dad and brother both got one right before I went truck shopping, and they dont have solid front axles.
