I don't know but it seems to me that these 0-60 times are not representative of the truck's horsepower...... the difference in time is too great. I think the The tow time up the mountain is likely going to be too small to be a proper representation of the power differences as both Ford and GM will likely have their maximum speed limited by the speed limit.
If you are trying to calculate and estimate HP. A quarter mile run with trap speed will probably prove more accurate. Zero to 60 has too many variables. An extra gear shift to reach 60 would make a big difference, etc.
