Depressing.....

8.1L Gas Vortec V8 in the newly styled HD trucks 340hp 455lbs torque.

also a 4 valve per cylinder 6.6L Turbo Diesel from Izuzu that puts 300hp
and 520lbs torque!!!

Both are available with Allison big rig trannies. GM and Ford are duking
it out now that they have both passed the aging Ram with the v10 or Cummins
Diesel.

15,000lb trailer weight! 22,000lb GCVWR!

Time for a MaxiRam! Of course I'd rather have a 5.7L hemi R/T with a
supercharger....Just wouldn't be able to tow my Yacht.
