I always find it interesting to read Randy's posts paying attention to the content, and then look at the day and time of the post. Usually I can string it together with that he's doing on FB. There's definitely a pattern

I drove gas Fords for years and the big bitch was sucky fuel economy. Got a ford diesel and it was crap, unreliable and dealer was unable to find/fix problems but it definently sucked. I then started searching and found all the problems ford had with the 6.0/6.6 diesels. I have 125k miles on my 07 chevy and except for oil changes every 8k or so miles and tranny fluid every 25k miles it has been flawless. Over 1/2 those miles are towing.

Ford diesels are problematic and I don't have faith in the Ecoboost V6 turbo for heavy duty towing duty. The bong is the Chevy Duramax with Allison transmission but the Dodge has best towing, can't beat the Cummins.

Is the Honeymoon over between IZZONE and TrakCar. They drive different model cars and now the truck wars will begin.

I've just had nothing but bad luck with Chevys..
Knock on wood but in 100k miles, I don't think anything has broke on the Dodge.. I hear the new Fords are mostly good, but ATLFahrer got a lemon too.

I want a Ford with all the Chevy goodies inside, but with a new caddy interior and a Dodge driveline.

Maybe it's my gentle 85-95MPH towing..
