I'm just not convinced you can get reliable, long-lasting power like that from a V-6. Yeah, it can be delivered for short periods by turbocharging the hell out of it and tweaking all the electronics. But it takes too much out of that small an engine over the long haul and it won't have the life expectancy of a V-8.

At least that's my "old school" way of thinking.

One of the guys at our stables pulled their living quarters horse trailer (with 3 horses) for a couple years with one. I'm convinced.
