I guess if I took my truck rock climbing that might mean something.

Same old propaganda garbage. None of the big three are really better than the other. I have never had a need to open my tailgate while traversing a ditch and frankly, I would rather have a frame that flex's a bit when off roading.

Didn't Ram beat the Ford a while back too. Granted they were 2014's, so maybe the 15's will be better. It's just another game of leap frog for the big 3.

That is very important in any market when you aren't the only product available.Any good off road guy will tell you the more flex a vehicle has the better it will do. The most fundamental concept in off road driving is to keep constant contact of all 4 tire patches on the ground. Hiking a tire up in the air 3 feet might look cool, but much like drifting a car, it's all for show not go.
