The Silverado comes packaged with a 4.3L factory which produces 285 hp, yet when F-150 and Ram 1500 comes into picture, it is by all accounts a liitle underpowered as Ram's motor delivers a monstrous 305 hp, which makes it a pioneer among its opponents. The Tacoma's standard 3.5L engine produces 278 hp, which places it toward the stopping point.

For the most part, these trucks are either utilized as a day by day driver or for towing and transportation. In any case, because of their overwhelming weight and enormous motors, they can't be driven on tracks like sportscar.

While the truck feels powerful because of a massive engine under the hood, the gas pedal feels slightly heavy and not as satisfying as some its rivals have.

Ride and Handling

The ride feels quite balanced and powerful due to the presence of highly responsive steering mechanism which makes it return quickly to its actual position and keeps the confidence level of the rider high. The body roll is significant but the smooth ride overshadows this con.

The truck's handling is well responsive and feels balanced, though the steering feels at a heavier side. The braking performance is also great on this truck. Also, due to the extra weight reduction done by the engineers at Chevy, the ride feels light and not so taxing.

Towing Capacity

An estimation of towing for pickups is taken something like 9000 lbs. In spite of the fact that these trucks have a number not exactly the normal, the Ram packs the post position with the most towing ability of 7730 lbs, intently followed by the F-150 with 7700 lbs.

Towing Capacity (lbs)	7400	7700	7730	6400

The Silverado gets the third place with 7400 lbs and with 6400 lbs, the Tacoma finishes at the last with the least towing capacity.

A good truck gives you more miles per gallon. The Ford using light materials is the most fuel efficient here. Be it city, be it highway.

MPG (city)	15	20	19	18
MPG (combined)	19	21	21	21
Tank Capacity (gal)	24	26	23	21.1

Even the fuel tank capacity of the ford is greater than what all of its rivals offer. The Silverado finishes at the last with the least numbers, though it has a big tank capacity to make up up for the lost numbers.
