Most mag's use 'car attributes' for their testing and think folks
assume a good thing for trucks too...
Like zero to 60. Important enough as occasionally do need to get it up to speed
quickly if made the choice to risk diving into a spot between'm on the freeway
But, not for me...a truck is a truck. If it can mix it up with 'car' spec's
all the while having good/great 'truck' attributes...sure thing...I'm interested
Forced fed has been around for decades. Direct injection has been around for
a little over a decade....even for trucks.
The key is longevity but that is only me...lots of folks don't understand the
overhead both of engineering and production that is needed for the complete
package for 'cars' and 'trucks' used for hauling/towing...not just grocery getters
