Today the results of a comprehensive towing challenge done by Cars.com, PickupTrucks.com and MrTruck.com was revealed. The challenge was one segment of a five-part series. The trucks were scored on 26 different objective and subjective categories. The trucks included in the towing challenge included:

◾GMC Sierra 1500 SLT 6.2L V-8

◾Ford F-150 Lariat with the 3.5L V-6 EcoBoost
◾Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ with the 5.3L V-8
◾Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn with the 5.7L V-8
◾Toyota Tundra 1794 Edition with the 5.7L V-8

As the saying goes, "There ain't no replacement for displacement." The GMC Sierra with its 6.2-liter V8 came out on top. Commenting on the SIerra, Mark Williams, PickupTrucks.com editor, said, “This is a mild-mannered pickup that is ready to don its cape and do some heavy lifting, saving the day from a long list of work chores. The engine and transmission are synced up like a smooth-flying jet rocket.” In addition to its win in towing, the Sierra also received accolades form the testers for technology.
