I want the one with the most performance so long as it isn't a Ram- Might consider a Ram when I am on a fixed income or start growing row crops. :)
Seriously, I am looking forward to driving all three of the trucks next year. Performance will factor into the decision in a very significant way.
It would be interesting to see how the GM truck would do if it had the 8 speed transmission and the current HP/Torque numbers against the Ram and Ford's higher output.
I think an 8 speed would shift way to much while towing unless it locks out the OD gears? I'm not sure how it would be better then a 6 speed. All three seam to have good 6 speed transmissions with grade breaking so why make it more complicated and expensive. Just a few thoughts!
My thoughts also and we have a 6 speed GMC crossover and I liked the 4 speed park avenue better.
