Which truck has the largest badge?

In the Battle of the Badges, only one truck can come out on top. Which one is it?

I guess auto blogs need to write about something during the lull after NAIAS.

Re: Which truck has the largest badge?

If you count the "Super Duty" logo, the Fords win, hands down. It's like a fargin billboard accross the nose of the truck.

As if I couldn't tell on my own that the 8 foot tall monster behind me at the light was a heavy duty truck...

Re: Which truck has the largest badge?

I remember when the then "new" F150 came out and the badge on the tailgate was freaking huge! Glad to see that GM is on top again. Once again though, when does the battle stop? Next year the logos will be integrated into the headlights.

The big badges will all have to go away as automakers try to improve the aerodynamics of their trucks to meet new CAFE rules...
