Horsepower is not the entire picture. I am saying they will up the payload and they will turn the motor up to where it runs as good if not better than the eco-boost with a heavy trailer and it will get way better fuel mileage. And yes they have turned the Cummins motor up about 100 hp and about 250 pounds of torque on the same motor. It is possible with the diesel because of the heavy duty construction
You're the one that said:
I will guarantee you within the next few years they will turn that motor up and be cranking what the eco-boost is cranking and getting way better gas mileage.
The Ecoboost puts out 365HP. That means the baby diesel needs to be turned up 125HP to be "cranking out what the ecoboost is cranking out"!
That is around 30% increase in HP in two years and well over what the 6.7 Cummins and the Duramax has NEVER achieved even in 15+ years of production!
You're being silly with your predictions.
