If the 440 hp rating of the Powerstroke is not SAE flywheel hp what else would it be?
I have no idea, they sure did not use SAE on the tow ratings except for the 450. That's why I am asking.
GM is very clear about SAE Flywheel horsepower. Seems they always did well with "less power".
Ford uses SAE J1349 and I also believe GM does as well. They have been using that standard for some time. What standard does Ram use?
Ford is using SAE for towing for 2017. The ratings basically stayed the same or increased from the non SAE ratings. With Ram using it they still put in fine print that the weight ratings are an estimate only. If you want to hang your hat on these ratings, fill your boots.

I guess it is time to close another thread due to old fish.
What a uber Ford fan boy - despite all evidence to the contrary.
