buying new truck

[rocketron]

Hi all, I'm looking at some trucks and would like some pros and cons of each. I am posting in the Ford forum too to try to get some opinions. I've got it narrowed down to a 2002 Ram 2500 diesel 6 4x4 speed and a 2001 F-350 powerstroke 6 speed 4x4. Both about the same mileage (150,000 km/90,000 miles) and price and similarly equiped. So shoot me some pro's and cons of each and what to look for. Thanks for any advice!

The 02's seem to be more prone to VP failure. Even with good fp they still fail.

Ask to see if it has had a new vp, if so you have no worries.
