Yeah, I would have to raise the BS flag on that too. I drove plenty of 5.4L SD's in the past as well and all of them would down shift to 2nd or 3rd at the sight of a hill when towing. They would get the load up the small hills, but it would be screamin' at 5,000 rpm doing 45 mph to get it there. I could just hum along at 1,700 rpm in 6th in my 6.7L CTD pulling the same weight up the same hill.

You're calling me a liar. I'm convinced you're a liar. I guess we'll just have to leave it at that.

Yes, I am calling you out for saying that your 5.4L only revs 30% more than my diesel pulling the same load BS. I have experience towing with 5.4L SD's and there is no way it will tow a 10k trailer up a hill at just 2,340 rpm which is 30% more than the 1,800 rpm my truck would do going 65 mph in 5th. Every 5.4L that I have driven would be screaming much higher than that at even the slightest of hill, and it you would consider yourself lucky if you were able to do the speed limit.

No way your truck will tow 10k lbs up a 6% grade 70mph at 1800rpm. You're still lying. Lol!
