Huntingdog Toyota is the only manufacture using the SAE standard not GM. GM was going to use them as was Ram but they chickened out because Ford said they would not use it until 2015. Not sure why GM and Ram backed down, had they adapted the SAE Ford would have had mud on their face. JMO your may differ.

Don

GM DID release their numbers. They quickly retracted them because Ford wouldn't as they originally said they would.
GMs 1/2 tons suffered a lot, and GM was unwilling to have lower published numbers than Fords due to the loss in sales that would likely result from that.
Do a search and you can find them as they were posted on some forums.
The HDs did very well.


As for the dodge video... That was a Dodge commercial, as has already been discussed.
I seriously doubt that the GM will trail that badly in objectives tests.

I really like the red print:).......So Ford has done THEIR own commercial and they got to crow, then, Ram did their own commercial, and they get their chance to crow and now all we're waiting for is Chevy/GM's own commercial so they can crow again and be #1.

Really, you got to love all these test...only reason Ram guy's get a kick out of them now is because we alway's ended up in last place between the big three....Ford had their air time and sell the most trucks and let's us know it...Chevy/GM has won and won and won, though they're not as obnoxious about it as the Ford owners, NOW, the lowly Ram owner get's a chance to do some boasting and bragging and we have to hear ALL the negative "spin" on it....Heck, sounds fair to me:)..............Wouldn't figure it would be any other way.
