"I expect the new Ram to come in DEAD LAST in the next Ike run. Why? Because the Powerstroke and Duramax has consistently dynoed more, plus GM is getting the 9-speed. But that's my point, it doesn't mean the Ram has worse "towing performance". "
May want to do some research
2018 Ram 3500 HD vs Ford F350 vs World's Toughest XXL Towing Test!
RAM 11.41 seconds 2.7mpg
Ford 11.43 seconds 2.4mpg
ATS Dyno 2017
In model year 2020, big difference is GM / Ford has really stepped up their transmissions, while Ram still has a 6 speed. Would it over-come a 40 hp deficiency? Not unless Cummins seriously sand-bagged the numbers.
You dyno graph didn't show up. In every stock dyno I've seen other than TFL (their's is messed up), the L5P and Powerstroke soundly beats the Cummins 385.
But, that wasn't my point. The context is that Ram is a superior towing platform compared to the GM despite lower engine output.
