Motor Trend names their"Truck OTY" Anti GM bias there?

They are not "dissing" anything nor does it have anything to do with sales numbers. I've been an MT subscriber since my teens, for the better part of the last 35 years. Motor Trend TOY and COY competitions only include new or significantly changed models. If the GMs have had only minor changes that's why they weren't included. The next year's competition might not include the Ford.

Because GM is in last place in 2500/3500 sales. My personal opinion is they need to stock more on the lots. When I was shopping back in 2010 the GM dealer had 73 1500's, 1 2500 and 0 3500 trucks. The 2500 was a bare bones work truck without towing mirrors. My prior two trucks were GM, but this time I bought a Ford becuase they had in stock what I was looking for.

and here is the statement where they diss GM ?

"We had the luxury in this test of having the Super Duty's most direct competitor on hand, and it proved instructive. The Super Duties accelerated more quickly and smoothly than their Ram Heavy Duty rivals, "
So they don't consider GM a direct competitor?

I read it as GM didn't or couldn't provide a truck...didn't read the entire article. I didn't buy my used truck based on Motor Trend :)
