It's actually funny to bank on a pathetic test procedure, IMHO there is simply no way there is a 30% difference in fuel economy.
I will admit that towing at 70 with a lower rpm will net better mpg that is a given or solo. That is why I liked the 3.42/AISIN combo.
So far this may be the only benefit to a 10 speed trans IMHO.
I'm not believing the 30% difference either but I've got nothing to loose if I buy a new Ford. If TFL's test demonstrated that the Ram was getting 30% better mileage than the Ford I'd either be buying a Ram for my next truck or be doing some serious mileage tests of my own before buying anything.
