Worth the read. Ram seems to dominate, with best base engine and transmission, best interior, best ride (both unloaded, and loaded over capacity, and towing), best efficiency, good braking and great overall performance

They shouldn't have sent one with the chrome package, as the price wouldn't have seemed so high.

Surprising (or is it?) how bad the Chevy handled when being the only truck loaded under its payload rating.

Also surprising how poorly the F150 braked when loaded, despite having the best unloaded stopping distance. Just goes to show how well Ram engineers there vehicles.
 
I'm shocked they ranked the Ford XL below the Chevy Work Truck. I used to be a Chevy guy, and I had the displeasure of driving a new fleet one for 2 days. Day 3 was me twisting arms to get an older one.

It literally feels like a flimsy S10 when loaded.
 
The looks alone don't cut the mustard. Monstrosity is a word that comes to mind. The mini bowtie offset to the drivers side is the cherry on this aesthetic disaster.
