Well, just for the record, we purchased a new 2014 and it now has 36k on it. For some reason, it has the stiffer front springs (snow plow option) on it. Yes, it was purchased locally here in Alabama. Go figure. That has led to my only complaint which is with front axle harshness over sharp bumps such as concrete expansion joints that have popped up. I suspected shocks were the main culprit and of course on a subjective subject like that the dealer said everything was fine. I replaced the original Rancho with Bilstein and it is much better. Of course that is a heavy solid axle up there so the ride is not too surprising. Other than that it has run like a top. No issues at all and certainly not oil leaks and the such.
Ergonomics are peculiar to us all. I like the Ford seats and GM switchgear drives me bonkers. That is all just personal preference so you take your choice there. I am sure that Chevy and Dodge make a fine product, but my experiences with Ford products have been really good to date. This is my first diesel though. I will go so far as to say it is the best truck I have ever owned. I drive it every day.
