Re: \'05 Diesel pickup independent comparison test
I think I may have been a witness to that hill climb. Seems like everytime I am out west in the mountains, someone in a dodge / cummins with a stock trailer blows by me like I am sitting still. Do all the cowboys in Montana drive like that? Until the 610 lb torque Bs came out, they were just twisting drive shafts into pretzels....but now I see they are pulling trailers apart. They were lucky on that one in the report...seemed like a pretty clean break to me , and easily repairable. As for the ones I've seen .... all the kings men couldn't put them back together again. Seemed like a pretty credible report to me.....
