Congrats to everyone for being the best :W

LOL, just like kids in school now days, they all get a prize! :B

Many Canadians love diesel 'cause of the better mileage and our much higher fuel prices. VW TDIs seem much more common up here (dunno about the future though!!).

Bet the EcoD's towing mileage was a big influence on the judges. The runner up was also a diesel, the GMC Canyon.

Yep the V6 is a great engine, we traded in Mama's 200 Limited with it on a 15 300S with the same engine but the 8 speed trans. The 200 was quicker off the line but the 300 makes it up in the top end.

Go ED!!!! I think FCM has a winner with this truck.

I was recently fueling my wonderful Pentastar Van and the pump next to me had an ED hitched to a smaller Fifth wheel...it was maybe 24-26 ft. Looked like a great combo.

Thanks!

On no! Not again. This is where all the truck, payload, performance, reliability and overall general experts (the ones who have never owned, pulled or hauled with one) come on and explain why those who awarded that prize could not have possibly known what they were talking about.
