I thought you said "imho opinion...the D-Max doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell." I've seen more stock Dmax's beat 6.0's then the other way around.
ok...agree to disagree

Agree to disagree agreeably! An opinion is a good thing, so long as fact doesn't overshadow it.

I'd rather push my Ford than drive a Chevy.

I had a chevy once, but I had to trade it for a dog. I got tired of walking by myself!
(OK, I never owned a Chevy, against my religon)

Chevy may have better numbers now, but Ford will take care of us. The heavy duty market has always been owned by Ford and I don't see them letting it slip away.

Look closely......that's a 2005 brochure.....see the upper right hand corner? That's old stuff...The fact is that right now the current duramax is rated for 360 and 650 and "wins" the ratings war for now.

Stroker03, where did you get your information on the dodge only using 15% of it's capability?

So in essence this means it's capable of about 2300 horsepower and 4300lb ft?
