They have the motor but don't have the chassis to back it up. Their tow rating and payload are = or < than the half tons offered by the Big 3. The motor writes a check the rest of the truck can't cash. I like them and seriously considered getting one but after doing some research they seemed kinda pointless. Cost the same or more than a half ton from the Big 3 and really aren't anymore capable. Why pay the big bucks for a motor that you can't use.

I'll give my take on the towing only. Not here to get in a measuring contest, safety convo, or anything other than what I have seen first hand. I don't own one, and won't be in the market for 10-12 years hopefully, so I have no reason to lie about it's capabilities. (Was called a liar on another site when given this info)
Had a guy do some dozer work for me at my camp. I followed him from our home town, to my camp roughly 80-85 miles, and then back home 3 days later. He pulled his dozer (27k lbs dozer/trailer) 70-75 mph without a hiccup. This is what I witnessed.
He huals this dozer with this truck almost daily as it is his job.
I was impressed

Not going to call you a liar because it’s actually pretty easy to pull something with wheels on it. However several towing test I have watched where they actually get into some hills it performs no better than the gas but cost about $5000 more.
