Half Tons Mikey,, No diesels...lol Or can you get a 2013 half ton with diesel? But yeah I like the Dodges myself. Ford Raptors are nice also.

They are all nice interior wise, i think the dodge is the nicest interior, plus you get 8 spd tranny and a diesel if you want... plus air ride. Money to burn? get the Mopar Baja kit put on ($20k) will kill a raptor any day. stock toy truck? go raptor. If you are going to tow at all though dont get one.

Yeah I just went and picked this up today. Blacked out Ram Hemi Sport, full load. This thing is gangster. Raptors are nice,, don't really want to jump a 70,000$ truck anyway. GMC Denali's are nice too we a got a couple of those already tho. Thanks for the input:beer:

I looked at all of them and have had 1/2 ton Fords from the Lincoln to the fully loaded Platinum.
All nice trucks with the later ones having nice interiors .
The new Dodge is very nice but was a bit nervous of all the new stuff. (8 speed trans and the air ride.)
I went with a 2013 Denali full load for the reason it is tried and true and price.
To have the latest it costs and they will have some problems.
It's just a truck and will look at the new F150 in a few years when the new one has been out for a year.

Love my Raptor and it tows the trailer like it's not even there. Best truck I've ever owned and I've owned every brand.

The Tundra will be getting a mild refesh new interior and sheet metal its do out at the end of August but no powertrain changes. The Titan will be all new next year including a 4 cly Cummins Diesel.
