Bottomline The 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 currently stands as the leader in the full-size light-duty truck market. Competition is a wonderful thing, and this may change once the 2009 Ford F-150 bows later this year. The Ford F-150 is a solid truck that is due for its 2009 model makeover, but it’s good enough that it may be all the truck you need or want.
