I will still extend my invitation for anyone with a gasser & similar wgt trailer to come tow with me in the mtns in Az. When finished we can compare towing speed/rpm and fuel milage. The gasser will fail in all catagories.
For it to be fair it has to be stock vs. stock. My stock 6.8 gasser 362hp/457tq and your stock 7.3 diesel 235hp/500tq. Yep, you'll burn a bit less fuel but I'd be curious who'd be at the top first. RPM comparing is irrelevant. Let both engines do what they were designed to do without all the "aftermarket" add-ons.
I'm not suggesting that I would beat the 7.3 stock because I don't know. :)
:h Agree but as you can see, my response was to the challenge from 64thunderbolt with a '99 7.3.
