Best argument against Dmax

My Wife's Niece is about to buy a new Chevy/Dmax and I am doing my best to convince her that an 05 Dodge/Cummins would be a better choice. I know there are problems with the Dmax but I have never owned a Chevy truck and have no personal experience so when she asks what specifically is wrong with them I'm not sure what points I should bring up. I seem to hear more about the Ford/International problems. In a list of 1 to 10 (if 10 problems exist) with 1 being the most urgent, what would be the most compelling argument against Chevy/Dmax?
