a few weeks back, someone posted a video showing trucks driving over a series of speed bumps..

IIRC the tundra's bed was almost torn loose..

if anyone has a link to the video, id sure appreciate it.

i sifted through a few "truck" related pages, but as you can imagine, this site often discusses trucks... alot...

some of those tests they do to vehicles are pretty cool. if anyone read "iron fist, lead foot" they talk about all the tests they did to the cobras before they were made. i forget most of them but i remember one they park the car up against a wall and just keep dropping the clutch from like 3000 rpms. imagine that smell:eek:

This video always makes me LOL. I think the dealer showed it to us when I was with my dad and he was buying his 09 F150 haha.

well im sure glad ford and dodge took that one home. really not a shocker though. ive test drove the chevy 1500, and dodges (along with my ford) and my results were...

dodge had a LOT of get up and go, very snappy, a fun ride. just couldnt get comfortable n it, felt like i was reaching two miles for the dash. still a fun ride.

chevy was quick too. not nearly as peppy. not comfortable in it, and not nrearly as good looking as the other two. kinda thought it was a joke for a truck.

my ford, imo is a little more sluggish then the other two out of the hole. however when towing (havent towed with chevy but after getting above 60 in it i dont think i would want to) i love my ford. it handles trailers great. Much more comfortable then the other two. Also better looking lol.

glad that was a ford commercial lets go get a dodge commercial of the same test or chevy commercial of the same test or toyta. those other trucks could have been tampered with our something else.

or im not a ford guy but it could have been an raptor chassis with f-150 body. but i could be wrong like i said i don't know ford that well.
