Expert Verdict

A serious work truck. Super Cruise and the diesel are the two options that separate it from the pack.

Pros & Cons

What We Love

  • Super Cruise hands-free driving

  • Multi-Flex tailgate
  • Strong max tow rating

Things to Consider

  • Interior trails Ram and F-150
  • Base V6 feels overmatched
  • Fuel economy on the 5.3L V8
