I predict that a bunch of people will whine how unfair the test was to their brand and it was biast toward the other. Then they will whine that the weight wasn't fair, that everyone shouldn't have been required to use 3.73 gearing, the drivers let off the go pedal to let the other brand win, it was not fair to do it at high altitude, and that nobody buys a truck because it pulls faster, stops faster or has a better interior because thier brand didn't win that catagory. Then finally it will go back to bickering about how bad the brand of the winners truck was 5 years ago.
But, I think it is a toss up between the Ram and Ford with Ram having a slight edge.
This. Except last sentence which is opinion (and I am a Ram owner).
These tests are silly as while they try to use real world weights towing the results are not real world. Who would ever go up a long grade at WOT to be first to the top. Only test I would ever trust would be 6 guys, 2 of each brand lover, test the trucks, and then a round table discussion. Beer would force out the tie breaker after a couple hours. Kinda like a campfire.
