Towing Comparison

Interested in the comparison of GM, Ford & Dodge trucks with gas and diesel engines.

Well written, apples to apples, no oranges thrown in the mix.

November/December issue of Truck Trend.

Sorry Squid, Truck Trend didn't have the latest articles available online. All my references were to the print version of the magazine. I will say, that the article cited by PolarBear, was nearly identical to the one in Truck Trend, and more comprehensive as well.

Believe it or not but that big pig is getting 15.4 MPG with only 2K on her before the deer hit. (The Titan only got 14 for the first 5000 miles and then started going up).

They say (Cummins) that it takes 10,000 miles for her to get broke in so the MPG really looks promising and with an advertised 350,000 mile life before rebuild of Heavy, Heavy Duty use, I should have her for a very long time. (10 years at least.)
