If you want a real truck I wouldn't buy a chevy, I would buy a ford. At least the country didn't have to bail them out. In reality, you pay twice for a chevy and a dodge, . I would stick with a ford and ignore the lack of knowledge this person has on vechicles.

Your welcome

I always recommend some quality alone time to reflect and decompress from all the time you spent fixing your ford

Also I am ok with paying for it twice because I can and it boosts the economy

Hmmm. One would think the "class leading torque" guys would beat the GM and Dodge up The Gauntlet... Perhaps Ford should start testing to the SAE J1349 standards - basically, as driven with all pumps/servos hooked up instead of stripped down so the marketing folks can publish big numbers only to get smoked in real world testing... again... lol.

Gotta love the classic Chevy - Ford - Dodge battle!

I'm a GM guy with the Class Leading HP at 445!

Looks like the new Ford had a really bad day of testing... Two towing tests, two last place finishes! lol.

In summary:
The SD had the slowest time pulling the mountain and the worst flat highway towing fuel mileage...
