Does the new F-450 also have the 440HP 6.7? If so, then no duh it'll race up the hill slightly faster.
440HP vs. 385HP = 55 HP which a significant difference.
Regardless, I still love my Cummins. I have the 350/650 and it pulls our 5th wheel quite well. So well sometimes that it's easy to speed unless you're watching or set cruise. Something my old half-ton hemi towing much less weight couldn't do unless you dropped it into 2nd gear.
Whatever. Cummins will bump the power and torque up again for 2015 or likely the 2016 models and even if they don't no biggie. It'll still tow like a train.
