    Super duty has a solid front suspension, Chevrolet independent front suspension, fords rear not a fully boxed frame like the front, chevrolets is a fully boxed frame all around.

    i also like how they only have a person from chevrolet there, but no one from ford is representing their trucks. seems kinda biased to me.

    It common knowledge that IFS will flex better up front then Solid Axle, no one will argue with that. its just knowing that you have a 1 ton truck and IFS up front that is sad.

    Gotta love these pics
