    This butt-hurt attitude seriously worries me...

    QQ doesnt mean quality control but like quit crying...

    On a 100% serious note: Would you guys rather me act like a upright respectful fargostreet poster...? I can do that for you if you guys are really going to take this so personally. I dont want to make any foes IRL over this forum haha, like ive said before, I am just playing around with you guys.

    bahaha, trolling is too easy on here.

                                        Something botheres me about that toyota vs. Ford video. The video insinuates that the toyota is behaving defectively and that the ford isn't, but doesn't appear to say so or why that's the case.

                                        Visually, the box on the toyota seems to oscillate with a much higher amplitude than the Ford. That may or may not be a problem.

                                        For one, certain trucks, like the Unimog, have a semi-flexible chassis that helps them articulate over rough surfaces. Ford has never and will never make a truck that competes with the Unimog. I have no idea if Toyota was trying to design a bendy chassis for some reason [my guess: they weren't] but it isn't necessarily a bad move in a heavy truck. Just about nothing mass produced has more "real truck" cred than the Unimog.

                                        Secondly, the spacing and size of bumps could have been chosen "carefully". When the Toyota bed appears to be moving most wildly, my non-trained eyes say "that thing is in resonance". The box is rotating in equal degrees each direction off verticle center. That doesn't happen on a random sequence of bumps. Every mechanical system has resonant frequences whereby additional input energy causes massive additional output oscillation [the tacoma narrows bridge video is the canonical example of mechanical systems resonance].

                                        Ford engineers would be clever enough to determine the resonant frequency of of the Toyota, and due to different design decisoins, that frequency could be different than the Ford truck.

                                        If the Toyota box / frame goes into resonance in normal driving / bump situations and the Ford will not, then sure; clear advantage Ford.

                                        But it may be that the Toyota and Ford will go into resonant oscillation at slightly different speeds / bump configurations, and Ford chose the course configuration that maximizes resonant oscillation in the Toyota and then ran the Ford over the same course to "show off" how much better the Ford is.

                                        IOW: without a better description of this test and why it is what it is, it's hard to draw a conclusion from it.

                                          Toyota should stick to making cars..

                                          My Toyota is doing just fine, how often do you actually drive on something like that you stupid fuck? And ask me again why my Tundra can pull my camper no problems up hills and my brothers Ford had to pull over and sit for a bit cause it got a little tired :icon_scratch:
