It’s good to see more diesel options coming out for sure and I completely agree about 1/2 tons being too light for the rating. As been demonstrated in various tests on the web the light weight 1/2 ton trucks suffer instability issues when towing at the higher end of they’re rating when compared to higher mass trucks. If the new PS F150 doesn’t gain weight it will be no different.
Good Point. You do need some weight in the trucks to handle the weight of the trailers today.
As in the TFL truck comparison. You had porpoising with F150 which is totally unacceptable. Here the same Pickup would ve down rated down to tow 8,200lbs
