You can make your own decision about. the video. I'm explaining how we grouped and tested the trucks.

It was fun to watch. If the Ram would have inched out the other two, our local Ram fans would have broke out the nachos and cheese in celebration! If the GM would have wheezed out a victory, our local GM geezer would have dropped his cane with excitement! Some folks know how to have fun, some don't.:B

In 100% agreement with you...BUT...do you think we would have EVER seen this video 'IF" Ford had placed 2nd. or 3rd??? Don't think so.....I really don't think Mike would be here now or that this would have ever been posted by a Ford owner, probably a GMC/Chevy or Ram owner, but again, if Ford had lost, doubt we'd be here right now....

But it's boiled down to name calling again, as these type post always do...if GM had won, it would have been posted and thrown in the face of Ford and Ram....if Ram had won, it would be thrown in the face of Ford and GM owners...It's what human beings do, grab a cause and hang on no matter what...nothing wrong with that, it's obviously what we do, right, wrong or indifferent....

It's just one of the VERY LAST criterium "I" look for when purchasing a truck to tow with is "How fast" it can get to the top of a mountain..don't get me wrong, I don't want to be struggling in a 50-55 mph zone only topping out at 20-30 mph before "that's all she's got", to get to the top of a mountain, (and I tow in a lot of mountains), but as long as I can run at speed limit, or a little under, I'm happy.

NC,
You may as well break out the nachos and cheese and celebrate anyway. The 2015 Ford can't even be purchased till spring so, right now, your Ram could very well be the quickest to the top of the mountain. By spring you should be ready for a new truck anyway... maybe then you'll finally be able to justify a Ford.:B

:B, nah, though possibly not believable, This truck IS my last one...at least for some time....(got it all planned out to August of 2016:))...

All kidding aside, all three are great trucks, I'm just not in that big of a hurry to get to a place when towing.

I'm not much into nachos and cheese, and you know what happens as soon as one starts to celebrate something....Murphy's law:)
