If they drag raced while pulling a 10k trailer or max payload in the bed that would be fine.

They did, read the performance $ data part. They pulled a 12,000 load. Chevy won every pull contest. But good grief the Chevys interior is as plain as you can get. Considering they all were $60,000 trucks the Chevy looked cheap. It will be nice to see what they do to the interior of the 2013 models. I know that interior features don't make a better towing rig, but for someone who's not brand loyal and looking for a top of the line truck, the Chevy certainly takes a back seat to the other two.

Agree with ducks; not bashing by any means, but I'd love to see Chevy step up the interior design for 2013. I honestly do think Ford & Dodge have more attractive interior/dash layout designs.
Interiors may matter little to most people, but for whatever reason to me it's a huge factor...it's an environment I'll be spending countless hours in, so for me I want to really enjoy the look & feel of everything.

I would like to say....I like the Chevy seating, simply put....the seats are slightly larger all around!
