Not much different. I was actually surprised at how nice it rode when I first got it since it has the straight axle. Coil springs make all the difference. The Dodge has a much better turning radius.

My biggest complaint is the poor parts lifetime of the front end parts when you run bigger tires.

Sorry to see the the truck get smashed and im even more sorry that the body shop lied to you and told you that cummins was an adequate replacement. But at least nobody was hurt you can always buy another Dmax later on when you get sick of the dodge.

I'm sorry, did somebody say the body shop recommended a Cummins as a replacement? That was entirely my idea. It's been 9 years since that tree fell on the Dmax. I've had the same Dodge ever since. Longest I've ever owned any vehicle from new in my life.
