Not sure what to say about this one. Also an interesting comment about the rear coil springs. Link

Also called them out on the fact that the Ram was a bumper pull towing a Ford with a water tote in the bed but the GMC was a fifth wheel with two water totes on the trailer at each end. They are becoming just another bunch of clowns getting free trucks to beat on with mindless clowns eating their dribble up.
Both the Chevy and the Ram were right up at their axle and towing limits. The Ram had the extra weight in the bed, but its trailer was lighter than the gooseneck pulled by the Chevy. Both trucks were predictably wheezy at elevation and seemed to perform similarly, times aside. I suspect the gas Ford would perform about the same, although it seems to take a person with no real brand loyalties to acknowledge that. The one test I watched where the Ford posted a faster time it was towing considerably less weight to that is not a valid comparison.
