This has got to be one of the most retarded "tests" i've ever seen. Who in their right mind will be taking a dually off roading through terrain that would put one wheel in the air.
The point is to demonstrate frame flex without having to film it at road speeds.
That said, flex is only part of the total suspension and handling package.
If your truck hits something large enough to flex the frame like that at road speed, I don't care what truck you have, you have serious problems. This is a test to confuse idiots. I guess there are enough of them here that they think this test proves anything of value. Bottom line, if you run a F350 within ratings, the frame will last a LOT longer than the engine and transmission probably will. Same with the Ram, same with GM.
All this test proves is that their are idiots out there that think this "test" measures frame strength or ability on the road somehow...
