Though the torque was there, not long ago class 8 trucks had about half that much HP while moving 3-4x the weight that these pickups will contend with.
I guess we'll be satisfied when we get to the point that a 20k 5er won't even make the truck slow down or downshift even in the mountains LOL.
I wonder when fuel economy starts becoming more important...?
Have you been following the 1500 series trucks? That's where the mpg battles are. The 2500/3500s are all about capability - with a side order of mpg.
