The more I research, the more I lean towards the F450. Have you had cupping issues with your tires?

The 450's were rare 3 yrs ago when I bought my 350 DRW. Even the high dollar models of the 350's were listing in the high 70's to low 80's. Ended up with a new '17 Lariat for 60K and used the savings to buy a '18 Solitude a year later!! I don't find the turning radius is that bad on my 350 and drive it daily...retired and live in the country so parking is usually no problem. No regrets here either!

Here's a pic of the 2020 F450 new rear axle cover, very heavy cast aluminum. Supposedly hold more fluid as well, pretty cool looking. Attachment 24229

I put in 2.5 gallons def in the 2014 Chevy diesel about every 2000 miles. Rough estimate. Last trip to and from Houston from Florida. Got 19.5 mpg drivinh 70 mph and about 17 driving 75-80. Measured from full tanks and no hauling. Hauling the 7500 lb 3000bh with about 1000 lbs of stuff in it got about 9.5 mpg. FYI.

Do the new rams still have the front end death rattle/ vibration? Look it up is a darn scary experience. First hand knowledge from my sons 350 diesel. Think it is a 2011?
