Taking these build price estimates into account, it could be said that fully-loaded GM, Ram, and Ford heavy duty trucks are $70,000-$75,000 status symbols of their own, wrapped in comfortable plush leather interiors, filled with high-end technology, and complete with phenomenal towing capacity.In order to obtain a general perception of today’s pickup trucks, I decided to consult multiple almighty internet search engines to see how they’d auto-fill the statement, “Pickup trucks are…” Google gave the following three diversified answers: pickup trucks are stupid, pickup trucks are for rednecks, and pickup trucks are expensive. Yahoo added another piece to the puzzle: pickup trucks are better than girlfriends. I’m not kidding. While many conclusions could be drawn from this information, we’ll focus on the potentially expensive price tag attached to today’s fullsize heavy duty pickup trucks, and how this price tag puts pickup trucks into categories normally reserved for luxury cars. But what exactly is this “expensive” price tag assumed by the internet? We decided to find out by building our own heavy duty pickups on the manufacturers’ websites.
