Bottom line the Ford beat the Chevy and Ram up the hill with significant less time. Beat the Chevy down hill with less brake applications. Beat the Chevy in the fuel economy test pulling 30k lbs.
These performance metrics will only mean a better performing trucks for it's customers.
There is not excuses here. I will admit that the Ford will beat all three up that mountain at 20F. I just don't think it would do it at 80F. That is is not an excuse, it is theory based on the trucks equipment and past tests like this at this temperature where it had more power, but came in last. Power creates heat and if it needs a fan at 20F, then I doubt it can sustain that power at 80F.
Here's the another 30k pull during a time where both trucks essentially have the same torque. The times were within margin of error.
LinkHaving said that I'm sure the trucks times will change with varying temperatures but I also believe the Ford will still take the least amount of time.
