Towing just got easier
Fish, towing should already be easy for you, the TT at 11,000# GVWR, would hardly make my 2001 Ram break a sweat (going uphill)!
What will be entertaining in the next couple years is who with be the first to claim 500/1,000!!!
No, what's going to be entertaining is all these blue bleeders getting new trucks that think everything is about HP are going to be going WOW when they gain 65 lbft of torque and no more HP and can't believe how much better the new truck handles the weight. If Ford puts the extra torque in the right place it will feel like a 100 more HP. :B
Assuming the 65 lb ft of additional torque above the 2016 Powerstroke is at 1600 rpm, it will produce 20 more HP at 1600 rpm and as the engine revs the advantage will become less apparent.
I know how much more hp it brings but I can tell you from experience of going from 850-900 with no hp bump it is great. When you look at it in the lower gears while accelerating it gives more torque to get it moving.
