Is 330 HP enough for a 37-40' DP

I have strong opinions on the HR endeavor. I have a 99 model, my brother has a 99 model, and my dad has a 2001 model. All coaches are built with exceptional quality, you'd be very happy with one. Both my brother and I have the Cummins ISB 275 and we are both happy with the performance. He pulls a 3 horse trailer and I pull a large flatbed full of desert toys.
My dad has the CAT 350 and it has a little more power than ours, but I wouldn't say it's a huge, mind blowing difference. And I have driven all 3 extensively.
I pulled mine over a truck scale fully loaded and it was 36,600# with trailer. Pulls that load at 75 mph no problem if you want to. I'm more comfortable at 65 though. All 3 of our coaches are 38' in length.
