    Thinking of selling ford and getting dodge

    argve, Do you recomend the change from ford to dodge? How hard are the dodge's to work on? The nice thing about the idi is it is fairly easy to work on and no computers or sensors to really go bad (except the tranny). Just want to make sure I make the right decision ;Sweet
