With all of the changes coming in 2020 to the 3/4 tons...
What are you most excited about? What are you most interested in? What do you think will have the biggest impact on the market? That sort of thing.

I think it'll pull a few for sure. But think about the numbers. Sure 10-15 year old diesel numbers vs the 500? Ft lbs that a new bug block gasser will put out would be a game changer. BUT the new diesels now have the same hp and almost twice the torque still as the biggest new gasser to hit the market. Some things never change?
All that said, I almost get a chub thinking about all the big power options in today's cars and trucks. I couldn't complain enough about the negatives of technology to wipe the smile off my face!
Where I do think this 7.3 engine will make a splash is in fleet sales. Take the 3/4 and 1 tons we run around that are very capable chassis that are kind of hamstrung for power in their gas variants. This engine (and the others to follow from GM and Ram) will be a big plus here.
I want my next work truck to have a 7.3 or 6.6 gasser! (Since they won't buy me a diesel, lol)
