But that's why I hate ford, they ALWAYS do shady ****. Just like their weight savings deal, they go around preaching its 700lbs lighter but that's only on ONE cab configuration, and its not even the most popular one (clearly the crew cab short bed is the most popular truck among any make in todays world). So why not advertise the real truth, 400lbs lighter?
That not exactly 100%. If you go through the the 2015 specs, most of the trucks are between 500 to 700 lbs from from the comparable 2014 model.
2015 F150 Technical Specs
2014 F150 Technical Specs
For example, a 2015 crew cab F150 5.0L 4x4 long bed is 4,930 lbs while the 2014 equivalent was 5,716 lbs which is a 786 lbs difference.
Same with the way they ALWAYS present the whole best selling truck in America deal. They almost always fail to beat the combination of sierra and Silverado sale (same truck) but they try to twist it like F150 CRUSHES the competition. You can look up the sales on 2013 and 2014 models online, and see they didn't out sell GM trucks either year in the half ton market. More ford scamming...
The Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra are two different truck lines per GM which is why they are counted separately.
