Now that we got that out of the way......
I wasn't too surprised in the Ram being the slowest especially being hooked up to a slow shifting Aisin, but I am surprised it having the lowest fuel economy. The newest Duramax seems to be very fuel efficient. I would have to say GM's newest HD offering is beating the competition in just about every test even fuel mileage, but that is to be expected with a all new truck versus a competition that is almost 10 years old. Although the Ford was just recently updated. No doubts they will just keep leap frogging each other with every new iteration which is a plus for us.
To be fair about the Aisin, even the 68RFE does not shift that great in stock form, but at least you can tune the 68RFE to shift much better and quicker.
I was surprised by this also. I would figure the Ford would have worst milage as it does in all of the tests. I can see the Chevy winning speed tests with the 3.73 gearing. Will be interesting once they post some more results of each test.
