I went with F250 in 2014 when Chev/GMC had no Denali or similar available. I just went shopping again yesterday, and hate to admit it, but the Ford is still the better ride IMO. The Platinum/Limited version has way more options than the Denali, as good/better hauler/capacities and slightly cheaper. The new Sierra's look like Lexus/Toyota so no interest those at all. I've been a Chev guy all my life, so this wasnt easy to admit, but my trucks may stay Fords for a while to come - or as long as I want to stay stock!
PS: I drove the Raptor - neat truck, but for close to $100k for decked out/all options, I'd expect the Coyote engine and not a turbo'd 6 ecoboost?

Still wouldnt mind a Raptor in my yard. But, considering the prices, if I had that money laying around I would be better off paying off my house!
My friend owns a work truck F150 (SCLB), 2wd Ecoboost. I assume the 3.5 unless they make a smaller one. From a dig it blew away my 477whp Tahoe. From a 20 roll we were pretty even until the Tahoe shifted into 3rd. I believe his truck is a 6spd. For having a warranty, 11,000 pulling cap, bone stock and all the cool gadgets (like changing the interior light colors) its pretty cool. I love my Tahoe, dont get me wrong, but technology has come a long way, and it certainly shows.
