    2016 has more emissions than the 2012 the 12 depending on what part of the year it was made should only have a DPF while the 16 will have SCR and the DPF an extra system to go wrong.

    I would take a Cummins over the ford motor any day. 6.4 liters will work a lot less harder than thee 3 liter for the same load. If you ever need the extra towing capacity you wil have it


    Aftermarket parts and service are much more available

    ahhh the morning brings more clarity. Both are dodge got it.

    I would be even More hesitant to get the eco diesel it's new product and they all have growing pains.

    A guy at the shop bought a 15 1500 with the hemi and it pulls his camper over the pass just fine. Fuel mileage is junk though.



    Mtn rider is correct with the chassis getting some wear on it at that mileage.

    I'm not worried about problem with the ecodiesel because of the warranty and knowing me I'll have something else by then.
