Here are some competitors ads from the same magazines:

Notice the tag line at the bottom...96 of every 100 Dodge trucks in thelast 10 years. This is a direct punch at Chevrolet's ad campaign with the same results.

Well,GM & Dodges both used Dana axles and New Process transfer cases,so its no wonder they both lasted about the same amount of time..
The Dodge's frames seemed equally beefy and less rust prone too..
Their sheet metal wasn't any better however..maybe worse..

Personally I think the Torque-Flight Mopar transmissions were as good or better than TH350's and TH400's ..

Zinc Rich Primer on inner and out surfaces...why not on the rear and bed??? The front fenders held up pretty well...if they had only done that to the whole body or at least the rear quarters

So Scout is smaller than Blazer, yet has more cargo space. It's like a TARDIS.

the caveat is with the blazer rear seat bolted in and the Scout seat folded down.
