interesting when the same trucks were tested at the IKE run.

The D-Max has to be de-tuning itself on the dyno, no way it could perform like that while down 50hp from the Ford.

The Cummins is the over-achiever. I'd like see the actual dyno curve, perhaps the Cummins has a broader / fatter power band, resulting in more power under the curve.

The peak numbers only tell part of the story - when at less than peak power rpm, the Cummins may be producing more power than the other two.
