Yeah. If this is sustained power, then it should easily mop the floor with the other two.

Advertisement laws do not require a manufacturer to advertise sustained power numbers. All they have to so is reach a certain power level in a short burst in accordance to SAE procedures which is at low altitudes. Some manufacturers factor in sustained power, and some don't. I wish sustained power numbers was a requirement for the J2807 tow standard meaning you can only advertise the lowest power an engine makes performing the up hill test. I have a feeling that some of the power ratings would drop considerably if it were.

Agreed. I'm not exactly sure how commercial truck engines are rated, but I have a feeling that the early 2000s Freightliner I occasionally drive will put out its rated 515 hp for hours at a time. I'd love to run it up the Ike pulling 60K combined against the new Ford at 40K. I think I know which one would do better...
