I think the real news is the Ford 7.3 gas performed almost as well in the up hill pull test compared to the Ram 3500 cummins and the Chevy 3500 Duramax pulling the same load. And the during the Ford pull they had to back off the throttle for a little bit so the time could have been less.

Here's the pull times in ascending order:
Duramax: 8:24
Cummins: 8:25
7.3L Godzilla: 8:42

I know you are meaning for this to be your usual dig on anyhing other than Ford, but I bet the Powerstroke time would be the same since they limit the speed to 60 mph and 8 minutes is a perfect time of you do 60 mph the whole way. So given the time it takes to get up to speed and the occasional letting off the throttle that Mr Truck does occasionally, the Powestroke would likely be in the 8:20 range too.

Difference here is that the 7.3L is giving it all it's got for many portions of the Ike while all three diesels would be able to exceed 60 mph through most portions of the Ike.
