    I agree. For that you need to buy the King Ranch. Nicest interior in a truck I've ever owned.

    It looks nice.... but recent Rams have been having issues, while Ford has stepped their game up immensely (they really have come a long way since the Triton V8s). For that reason, I'd probably buy the Raptor, despite an 8,000 dollar price difference. Plus the interiors in the Fords really are leaps and bounds nicer than the interiors of the Rams. I'd still take a Chevy over either of them though.... if only they had a Raptor-style offroader for the Silverado :(

    Plus I HATE the shift dial. That is the stupidest thing to me. Trucks should have a column shifter, or at the very least a floor shifter like our Tacomas do.

    That's to remind the buyer what happened to his prostate when he bought the ugliest Dodge truck produced in decades.
