Two things I noticed in the video.
At about 3:40 listen to Nathan's voice. It sounds to me like he is getting bounced bad enough that his entrails are banging against his diaphragm thus altering his voice.
Then on the downhill braking they state one brake application was a record.
When they tested the 3500 trucks with 22,800 lbs the GM only had one brake application as the 2500 Ford. In both cases this is what tells the computer the max speed to allow the truck to go.
With the 3500 test I did not see where they said how many brake applications the ford required but I am sure it was more than one.
They did say at 3:11 in the 3500 video the Ram required three brake applications.
They also complained the GM did not go over 50 mph which is where the brake was first applied. The GM held the exact speed they set it at with the first brake application.
So to make things fair at 22:21 in the 3500 video they said they gave all three trucks the same braking score when it was very clear the GM out performed the other two.
