    You can't really go wrong with 800-ft/lb.

        Haven't driven a new diesel truck but our 04 Dodge 2500 with the Hemi was a nice truck...

          My grand-parents-in-laws? have a 2008ish Dodge 3500 that they use to pull their nearly 50 foot 5th wheel all over the place. It's been good except it just blew the exhaust manifolds off, lol.

          Sadly, I am one of those people that would buy a Ford over any of the other two. They are really nice trucks.

            They do call it a powerstroke still, however, it isn't built by international like the older ones.

              Cummins is ftw, but Dodge trucks suck ass. It's sad really.

                  Pretty much the best setup without breaking the bank with swaps and stuff.

                    Gross... I have never liked Chevy trucks, I don't think they are built as well for a work truck with their IFS.

                      ewwwww...chevy. They get the CTS-V. Everything else makes me want to eat my eyeballs.

                            Guys...guys...let's all look to Top Gear America's very comprehensive and informative Top Truck Challenge...

                            Wait....does anyone even watch that show?

                              Dude then we'd have to watch Top Gear America. I can't fucking stand that show. Every time I watch it my neighbor calls and asks if I can keep the angry screaming down. It scares his dog!

                              I would go for Ford over the other two, but a lightweight Tacoma has suited my needs for years.

                                Hey guys. I haven't been on here for awhile, and I know this is for e30s, but I just bought a 1990 525i and it doesn't start. I thought it would be an easy fix but looking at it, I'm guessing it's because the timing built broke...so yeah, please tell me that these motors are non-interference...and all I have to do is replace the timing belt :) and if not, I would love to part it out or sell it as is to anyone lol. Thanks.
