'04 F-150 on MotorWeek.

On MotorWeek on TV this week, they featured the new 150. Good stuff, although I was hoping they'd spend more time on it, showing different models and interiors and such. Oh well, at least they showed it, right?

Usually Motorweek and Car and driver test the same vehicles at the same time and come up with the same results. This however, Motorweek seemed to like the truck much more than C/D even though their 0-60 came to 9.9 seconds. I believe C/D had a number closer to the high 8's.

After looking at both of those tests the axle ratio was the difference. The 3.73 posted in the low 8 second range.

With the 3.55 rear end, turning off the overdrive perks up acceleration at the epense of economy.
