The Dodge is much improved over the '62, but I still prefer the Mercury over the Dodge. However, if we were comparing 1964 models, I would go with the Dodge, my favorite year of the downsized trio.

Dodge; definitely Dodge. No. The Merc. Definitely the Mercury. No. Wait. Ahhhhhh - Tie.

No contest for me, I like the Mercury.
The Dodge '61 to '64 styling IMO looked terrible.

I'm going with the Merc also.😊

My Brother had a 62, and I just like the curves better than the Mercury, so the 63 Dodge gets my vote.

Slight edge to the Dodge but neither is a favorite of mine.

The Dodge is such an improvement over the previous year. Neither is on my favourite list but I slightly prefer the Dodge.

My pick is the Dodge because of the Max Wedge 426 Ram Charger engine...
Gents, thanks for your replies.
