I added a Silverado and a Ford F 150 for you... Cut and paste: http://autos.yahoo.com/newcars/comparison/select.html;_ylt=AltQFKSzRyh1huG1X6W5_IEYc78F?search_type=all&make=fordtruck&model=4010%3Afordtruck_f150supercrew4x4_2005&trim=15286&carid0=16621&carid1=15575 Next click the orange tab that says compare. Then at the bottom of that page you can compare features, specs, etc... Basiacally the GM is outdated and the Ford is heavy!

Those Titans really are nice trucks. I like to have 3/4 to a ton for towing and hauling. I recently heard that my local Chevy is offering this employee discount on every vehicle on the lot, with the extra low financing, which could still be 0%. Marshall, it's always nice to have a stock looking car and then suprise them on the road. I know the supercharged Riviera's are fast.

How in the world did you get a 1995 Merc Cougar to do 0-60 in 5.5 sec. ????? (Super Charger with a shot of NOS and some slicks should do the trick :-) Even the Thunderbird SC's and Turbo coupes were pigs by todays standards...
My next truck will be the Nissan Titan 5.6L V8, 32 valve, 305@4900! Try this little comparison...Put in any Titan and then put in a comparable Chevy  http://autos.yahoo.com/newcars/comparison/select.html;_ylt=AnglEc_actXsiaBDgxoguM9xC8UF?carid0=16621 Why not get the 8.1L Chevy Big Block in the 2500. Compare that bad boy to the Titan, LOL!!!

Yes but....that is a different truck made for a different purpuse...and priced accordingly Just wouldn't be a fair comparison. However Nissan is planning to go into the Heavy Duty market....Big diesel too! Look out big 3....
