They don't give any specs on the trucks. I hope they at least used a chevy with the max tow package so it had the steepest gears in it that you can get in those trucks now. I do think those guys are goobers, but that's beside the point.
The raptor is awesome, no doubt, but it's not really a fair fight. Chevy does not have a dog in this fight right now. The raptor is a purpose built performance truck. To be more fair chevy would need to release a new SS truck with a higher horsepower 6.2 and steeper gearing. I'd like to see that. Same for Ram if they had a 6.4 powered 1500 with steep gearing.
I'm still breaking in my truck so I've not gotten into the skinny pedal on my new Ram much, but i can already tell the 6.4 HEMI has a lot of juice.
