Good luck competing with that and keeping any range.
Well said, that's what pickups are all about.
Thanks for the links.

Wow!
That translates to a 16,000 lbs GVW on a v6.
My first diesel (a small 4 door sedan) had 425 ft lbs @1700 rpm...my current diesel (a mid sized sedan) has 400 ft lbs @ 1700 rpm.
The ford F-150 with the ecoboost is the snizzle! Great truck!
