Ram vs Ford vs Chevy frame twist

I think it's a valid demonstration. Excessive frame flex in rough terrain can cause problems. Admittedly that's not as big of an issue for DRW trucks, but plenty of SRW trucks are taken on fairly rough terrain regularly. Even on a smooth road a stiff chassis makes a world of difference in ride and handling, and just the subjective feel for how solid the vehicle is. Do this test again when the new Super Duty comes out and I'm sure it won't flex like that anymore.

You don't have to do rock crawler duty or play twister to have $2,000 dollars worth of damage done from a weak frame.

Here is 6 pages worth of talk about radiator problems

3 pages of leaky radiators

Marketing hype that bears no resemblance to real world usage.

I agree with Iraqvet05 and by the way Thank You for your service for me and our country. I have a 2004 F-250 that has hauled fifth wheels since it was new . Guess what no frame issues .
