Ram vs Ford vs Chevy frame twist

I always chuckle with these tests. Ike Gauntlet, Frame Twist and on and on. If your preferred brand of 3/4 or 1 ton truck doesn't win then the test is flawed or it's not a realistic test. Ford, Ram and Chevy all make capable and excellent trucks. They all will do a fine job. The same is true of the aforementioned three trucks and the Toyota and Nissan in the 1/2 ton class of truck (forgive me if I missed a top selling brand). It's more about personal preference in looks, color schemes, features and what you'll be using the truck for. Is it a dedicated tow vehicle, is it your everyday driver, does it look cool to you, price, what your family has always driven and a host of other things all play a role in forming our opinions and what we ultimately drive. Maybe instead of the "mine is better than yours" mentality, we should just be thankful we're in a position financially to have a truck that is capable of doing what it is we want to do with it!

Well it sounds good for you flat landers.

But - here I it is - a real true story - had a loaded Ford 3/4 ton in no where Utah. Going through a nasty bit of sand. The frame twisted so bad I had to crawl trough the window - both doors jammed and the tail gate was useless.

A Dodge came through the same spot with out a problem.
