Funny that in every trailering test I've read comparing the Cummins to the Powerstroke and Duramax, the Cummins is always last, comparable figures on paper, way different on the road. Plus with the infamous tradition of Rams eating their front ends and transmissions, no thanks.

Plus with the infamous tradition of Rams eating their front ends and transmissions, no thanks.Yeppers, Cummins tails the V8's no matter the HP/TQ figures, odd I say, since 98% of heavy trucks run inline 6'ers. There was a comparo with the new gasser 6.4 hemi Ram vs the old 6.0 Chevy. The Ram has 410 hp 429 tq, the Chevy has 360 hp and 380 tq yet the Chevy blasted the Ram towing up the Ike Gauntlet.Maybe FCA has the same dyno as Hyundai/Kia? Best in class hp/tq numbers that don't translate in the real world.
