Anybody remember Pixar's Cars movie from a few years back? The end of the movie had a brief snip of urban SUVs having to suck it up and get dirty off-road. There is a lot of truth in that comic.

There are some trucks (and their SUV counterparts) which may only see 4x4 a couple times in their lives when they drive on to the field to pick up the balls after soccer practice, There are a lot of other trucks that will spend their entire lives 'working'.

Crossing a ditch at an angle with a load in the bed? You betcha, that is real life for a work truck! So I'll amend your statement...

Yes, 99% of urban trucks & SUVs that have 24 inch chrome rims with spinner hubcaps will never be in the situation that test simulates. Work trucks with dirty steel wheels, out getting the job done, will see that often enough on job sites that it is a very real concern.

Am I going to come out and bash a brand based on a YouTube video? Naw. Marketing can employ tricks to get their point across and I don't trust most stuff like this. However, it is interesting how that video showed Dodge vs. Ford. When I watched it on YouTube, the next video up showed the same test with Chevy vs. Ford. I don't think Chevy & Dodge both got together and said let's fake some anti-Ford tests, so there might be some truth there after all.
