    Ford vs Dodge vs Chevy one ton diesels

    Time for a new truck. Currently I'm driving a 96 diesel f250 and it's time to trade up. Specifically looking at newer one ton diesel full size crew cab pickups and wondering about any known issues with these trucks...say 2012 up to 2017.

    Love my Ford. Great power, great fit and finish, decent ride.

    I've owned two since 2012 and neither has disappointed.

    How much are you asking for your 96?

    Surrey Boy not sure I'm going to sell it yet, I may have to keep it until I can buy a new camper as the old camper won't fit the new truck. I will be looking for around $6500 for it when it goes though.

    Another question I have is would anyone recommend a good dealer? I haven't had to deal with a car lot for about 12 years so have no idea where to start.

    Re pre emissions: nope. Looking for a new truck with very low to zero kms. on it this will be my last truck before retirement then I will trade in for a new one. I'm just tired of having to drive the older beater even though they are great trucks it's time to spoil myself and get a full load luxury ride
