rides better, brakes better, seats better, dash better, drives better, tailgate locks and is automatic up and down, stereo better, badge better, radio better, hear wine in engine better, big screen better, seems faster but the stats say the same. I loved my 21, and did not think there would be much difference. But when I pushed on the brakes, I knew that someone was paying attention. Feels like they let the computer go after everything to make put this at another level. Did not know all of this when I bought it. Really thought that I was foolish throwing money away. Much different truck. Still a lot more money. Same body!!!!!!!!!!! I do not think the axle on this one will make a thud when I take off!!! I am 83 and deserve 777 hp.
