If you have the coin to afford one of these trucks, I don;t think you can really go wrong. The only disadvantage I see with my GMC is that the interior is not as nice comparably to the Ford and Dodge top end models. I went with a fully loaded Denali package and the Ford King Ranch and Dodge (rawhide model or whatever they call it) are hands down a better interior. GM needs to wake up on this overlooked item. I want the rawhide interior!!!
I prefer GM and at the time, problems with the Ford drivetrain; and fuel mileage, ride quality, & transmission of the Dodge kept me away from those brands. Having the Allison transmission also sold me on the GMC.
I joke with my buddies: Allison transmission, Cummins Diesel, Ford interior, and a GMC body would make a great truck!
Also, that Ford is sweet, great job Ford, nice rig.

The 2015 GMC Denali is getting some interior upgrades to catch Ford and Dodge.
Could not find a straight on shot of the 2015 Super Duty Dash but here is a 2014 for comparison.
And the 2014 Dodge Ram Interior.
All are nice looking and most people would be happy with any of them. Not sure which looks best if I had to pick.

Speaking of interior appointments... did anyone see the loaded Tundra on Top Gear (US) the other night, 1794 (designed and built in Texas) Edition?
(Yes, I know it is a Half-Ton, but as noted here on OSO it pulls a 38 Fountain EXPERTLY!)
Here are some more pictures:

I was seriously impressed by how luxurious that thing was inside. I'm not buying one, but I was impressed.

How long before Toyota makes a diesel package? I would think after a few years they could capture a nice chuck of the market. I hate Toyota, but they seem to do a good job a selling cars/trucks.

It looks like they took a ton of notes from the F-150 line on the interior...so much of it looks like a complete copy.

my neighbor just had to fork out nearly 2k to replace the evaporator on his 2012 f-250 diesel with 43k miles, apparently they are having a problem with them splitting in the middle, the tech at the dealer said he is doing a couple a week. Anyone else run into this problem? apparently affects 2011-2012 models

So Ford makes an entire Advertisement based on ZERO facts.
This was not a test of any relevance and does nothing to change their Stumble in the Rockies performance from 2011.
Vehicle is Pre-production and Ford has not released ANY hard numbers!
They have not even released whether they will actually step up and use the SAE tow standards.
Waiting for next month's "38 years in a row as America's Best Selling Truck" (As long as you don't include GMC's near identical vehicle sales numbers)
Nice wax job Ford........
