Sir, you are 100% RIGHT. If both were using the same tires/tire pressure, the lightest truck had weight added to they could go head to head, in an honest manner, I'd be watching with great interest. Putting your finger on the scale and declaring a winner, just goes to show how much free time you have, why not just declare a winner, and not bother with the "test"?

 

I don't think it's more than pure entertainment, you know someone has to try it. Same reason grown men drive around in a counter clockwise direction for 500 miles?

Because they can.

 

If a team like The Mythbusters had performed the test for "educational" purposes, the results may have been the same. Although, they most likely would have been different.

We may never know since we as society seems to be loosely following the plot of a movie made for entertainment, Idiocracy...

It has electrolytes... The plants love it...

 

Yes sir! Pure entertainment value, "kinda- like" big time Wrestling,,,,, I'd like to see some real truck head to heads, a nice travel trailer 400 miles on the rec side, the work side, pulling a load of bricks (for weight) 150 miles. Time and cost of fuel. The important thing is if you saved $$$50.00 on fuel costs, but it took you only two extra hours (charge times) then you "made $25.00) an hour?????
