Ram Eco-Diesel vs F150 2.7 TT - Davis Dam
You just know it's not gonna be close! So which is better? Horsepower or torque lol. (The answer is both, apparently.)

HP does not remain constant when you run it through the friction and losses of a gear box. Normally 15 to 18% loss.
Now you're just nit picking; I think you knew exactly the point I was trying to make.
And to nit-pick you further, a simple planetary gear doesn't lose anywhere near 15 - 15%.
A full transmission, with 3 planetary gear sets, an intermediate shaft, 3 - 5 wet clutch packs, plus a hydraulic pump, is around 18%.
