| Top honors for 2008 in the big 2WD segment go to the GMC Sierra, whose slightly better depreciation rate enabled it to edge its counterpart from Chevrolet to win Vincentric’s Best Value in America™ award. The Sierra was best in all three annual mileage scenarios measured, with the Ford F-350 rounding out the top three positions. |
