RAM EcoDiesel a Flop for Towing

Would you apply this logic to commercial trucks as well? I mean, why not? They do many more miles than RV towing trucks do. I imagine we would have to start equipping commercial trucks with dual engines, or maybe even turbine drives, to be able to pull legal weights (105,000 pounds in most western states) up 7% grades which are also common out here. Or maybe they should lower truck weight limits so we can have 2-3x the trucks on the road, just so some cars aren't momentarily inconvenienced.

I don't care about what a commercial truck does because I don't or will ever drive a commercial truck. Also, most people that drive commercial trucks don't own them, their company that they work for do and they probably have a different criteria for what their truck needs to do. If you want to put apply my expectations to commercial trucks then go ahead, but I don't care about them since I will never drive them.
