You're probably right, I'm sure they wish someone else would have.

Also "We expected the Raptor to dominate the performance tests, but the 5.0-liter is right on top of it." Yeehah, I own a 99% Raptor in a 5.0L suit!

I sure hope the steering is fixed in the 2018, it sure sucks in the 2016, as many have contested to, especially when towing. Glad to see they actually test the trucks as trucks too with towing trailers.

Had to laugh at this one,

What a concept: a desert racer with a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V-6 generating 450 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque that does 060 mph in 6 seconds flat and can do a burnout with a trailer attached.
I did burnouts with my 2014 with a trailer attached. Not by choice either, just trying to get going from a dead stop sometimes the rear would break loose if I gave too much gas, and would spin a tire. It had 3.15 gears and RWD.


Why would they compare the F150 XL to the smaller Colorado, they aren't in the same class. I would have considered that truck to be in the Ranger class.
