Also since many complain about the stiff ride from a 1 ton truck; I'm surprised the OEM's don't put airbags under the seats or cab like they do on semi trucks. I'd also like to see them take some design ideas from semi truck frames and apply them to the flimsy pickup frames so they can have some real hauling capacity.
Maybe it's the P rated tires? Or the light duty wheel ratings? Or the car axles they put in them?
For the asking price of a new truck; they really should offer a lot more.
Best not to task their brains with too much too quickly, it is only in recent years that they figured out how to make their frames stronger and a few things like noticing that there was nothing substantial to tie things down to in the boxes.:)
By 2020 they might realize a truck rides rough and a car seat is no good !!
