Need I say why I need that extra HP, I was able to fly with ease over the Rockies on I-70 from Denver to Vegas without a hiccup.

And need I say that the equipment you have there is not adequate for the task at hand ??

My opinion is that you are pulling too much weight and additional wind drag with the RV that you have.

And someone else mentioned that often "adding HP" puts additional strain and wear on the engine and transmission and drive components ??

BUT.....if you are happy with what you have, that's all that really counts. Until you aren't happy.

My total weight is 26,500 lbs, well under Fords max working weight of 32,000 lbs for the V-10 and 5 speed torque shift transmission, my suspected HP is 400+ and 500+ lbs of torque, same trans is used in Diesel trucks with lots more torque, 4 electric brakes on trailer for added braking, no strain on my motorhome.


I will see you in the hills and pass you by, dont let my side wind push you off the road..





:C

Well Tim, We need to get your late model Bounder and my antique Bounder at the bottom of a mountain at the same time. Who ever rolls over the top of the hill last has to spend some more money on horse power. GRIN
