[TYREBOYS_DEMAXIN]

heres it is and they both had 10K weight behind them YouTube - Diesel Drag - Ford v. Chevy read the comments belowe i tell ya it's funny what some of these guys come up with..oh i'm afraid the PSD lost but it did grab the lead off the line but it couldn't hold it leaving the DTD the winner..enjoy
i didn't post this for bashing just wanna hear you all thoughts..

Can't view this... I'm at work

It think it is bs.... doctored video : hahahah j/k!! I dunno. Looks like they both took off the same and the d-max has a better powerband.

Isn't the d-max running a 6 speed auto now? wonder if that makes it accell quicker with a load??

[Logan]

Yeah, that was getting old

[TwinTurboStroker]

Its that 3rd gear I tell yeah.....it had the D-max off the line and through 2nd but you can see it, once it hits 3rd it falls on its face and the D-max pulls away

The video leaves a lot to be desired, but you have to admit it looks close. With a few more rated ponies the Dmax should have the advantage if everything else is equal. I haven't driven a 6.4 yet, but from what I've seen they are lucky to have any more than a 6.0 even stock. It will be interesting in the next 6 months as the tuners get deep into these new 07 emissions engines and figure out how to max them out reliably. I want to see if Cummins still has as much potential as the venerable 5.9 did/does.

The best part of that video are the comments below it!

As I was reading the now closed thread for the last time, I thought to myself that anywhere else that thing would have been shutdown! Lo and behold I came upon the Logan post. It needed to happen, that thread smelled like butt!

THAT WAS A GOOD RACE..
A TITAN OR TUNDRA WOULD HAVE LOADED UP WITH 20,000 AND WALKED AWAY FROM THE DIESELS...








NOT...

I saw that the d-max ran a 22-ish...but you couldn't see the Ford's time. DUnno why...but I didn't have any sound...and it looked like neither one boosted up on the launch. POOR, POOR video.

"Ford F-350 DRW PSD 3.73 versus Chevy 3500 DRW Duramax 3.73 at Milan Dragway during the 2007 PickupTruck.com Heavy Duty Shootout. They are both towing 10500# trailers.

F-350 ran the 1/4-mile in 22.98 seconds at 60.56-mph.
Silverado 3500 the 1/4-mile in 22.56 seconds at 61.81-mph."


that's the video description. so the Chebby won by 0.42 seconds and had 1.25mph more speed. Not a HUGE gap, but I agree with the 3rd gear comment. These trucks hit 3rd and freakin FALL OUT! I hate it in my rig- I get off the line KILLIN it and then 3rd gear I feel like it all drops out... I wonder why.

[Ditty]

That's even true in my 6spd. 1 and 2 are good...once I hit 3 and 4...it's like I'm pulling a parachute.
