OK we have already is this when Troy posted it.
Ford puts on a test using the press saying they used identical trailers. But in true Ford fashion they lied! The Ford and only the Ford is pulling a Montana High Country the Ram and GM are pulling Challenger Crusader Touring Edition with a higher profile cap!At 1:55 they say ALL are pulling the same Challenger Crusader Touring Edition.
Until a these trucks are tested using a certified independent testing company it's nothing but an ad!

My guess is the Montana had a rear cap and the Crusaders were shown with flat rears, which creates more drag. Who knows if the different fronts helped or hurt!
Swap trailers between the RAM and Ford, and retest!
But then again, there was only a 15 second spread!!!!!!!!
