Having spent a week or so on a new layout for the PMT yard in Milpitas, where the new GM vehicles are taken off the rail cars and stored for distribution, I can attest to the high rate of failure of the frames of GM trucks (buckle in the middle) simply from the tension of the tie-down chains during transport. There were several that failed just during the time that we were laying out the yard, and more stored in the same condition.

This has never happened to Ford or Dodge trucks; just GM, Toyota, and Hondas.

If you need to cary a load, get a Ford!
