Not according to DC who is the final winner. DC is purchasing Detroit
Diesel and upping the ante on Cummins stock. This has Cummins worry about
the deal because national and international sales through DC.
There is in the works a 345HP and 800plus lb of torque motor. Read it on
the www.car-truck.com very interesting article. This will only debate in
the new HD 2004 Ram.

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.
