Hello all...from a very wet Houston Texas. Picked up a 2019 Ram 1500 Limited back in July. Honestly, wasn't even looking for a new truck...was happy in my 2017 F150 Limited (or so I thought), had just stopped by my local dealer to look at a Durango for the wife. Saw a Limited on the showroom floor, then looked inside at the two-tone blue/tan interior and the 12" screen. Then drove it and was hooked. First Dodge product I have ever owned and I just love it. I'm a longtime GM patron but this truck has me rethinking a lot about what I thought was a good quality vehicle. F150 was in the shop the first 3 months I had it. The aluminum body would dent if the wind blew too hard, and the tech was good, but seriously under performed against the UConnect. Not quite ready to trade the Corvette for a Challenger, but...this is the best truck I've owned yet and loving it.
 
Traded in a '16 F150. I hate to blame it on the numerous issues, as I am sure there are plenty of Ram folks who've flipped for the same...but that was the instigating factor. Doors need to shut in cold weather and F150s are still working that out. Either way, all things being equal and issues aside...the Ram experience (IMO) has been a huge step ahead of the F150. Specifically: Ride quality / Stiffness - i feel planted, Creature Comforts/Tech, Styling/finish (albeit personal) and Transmission (Hemi, again personal). I could go on, but it is currently a no contest.
