2017 F150 EcoBoost vs 2016 Ram EcoDiesel Towing MPG Review

One thing I often dislike about reviews is that they place the truck in drive and let it do its thing rather then get to know the truck and it's capabilities and report on that. So in the case of a long downhill descent a truck that will drop three or four gears right away without any driver input and hold the grade at a constant 55 mph will likely score high. Unfortunately that truck will behave the same way on all the short little coulies as well. I think I would prefer having my truck requiring a touch of the downshift paddle to get it to fully hold back on the long descent that way on the little hills I can easily let it gain a few mph on the downhill to help carry it back up the uphill.
