Also, these diesels won’t win a towing race with an ecoboost but they are very capable trucks performance wise within there specs.
So do you believe a 250 hp/440 lb-ft diesel is capable performance wise to tow 11,400 lbs both in flat land and in mountains?
Did they not meet the SAE protocol? Or is Ford no longer following that?
It is more than likely following J2807 which means it can tow 11,400 lbs up Davis Dam at 40 mph and still pass. I wish they would increase that speed to 55 mph for single rear wheel vehicles. Yeah it will lower tow ratings, but at least you know it will be able to tow that weight at a reasonable speed.
