Ram Eco-Diesel vs F150 2.7 TT - Davis Dam
You just know it's not gonna be close! So which is better? Horsepower or torque lol. (The answer is both, apparently.)

Like others are saying here, those two statements don't go well together. "cheap miles" and high speed towing? Doesn't compute.
For this retired, old fart who drives at 62mph to save $$$, the main problem with the EcoD is the truck's low payload, not the low HP. Although I will admit the EcoB's high HP is fun at times, I'd rather have the EcoD's mileage.
So like you, I'm waiting to see what the Nissan will be like. The Cummins 5L will have more than enough low end torque and HP, too much really, but if they don't put it in a heftier tow truck, it will be wasted on me. RAM should have kept it and put it in their 2500.
