The new Powerstroke was designed from the ground up to KILL the Duramax.... and thats just what it does.
Powerstroke: 560 ft lbs. / 325 HP
Duramax: 520 ft lbs. / 300 HP
Plus the Powerstroke is engineered, designed, and built in America. The Duramax is an Isuzu engine!
HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
you guys kill me LOL LOL LOL
last i read those 6.0 powerstrokes were barely putting down anything over 230 horses at the rear tires when they were stock-
that's close to 30% loss of power thru the drivetrain, where as the dodge is only 17% loss or less.
FORD can rate them at anything they want, but i think they are overrated...
i thought everyone knew that when you started to turn up the wick on any diesel, that the cummins motor is the ONLY one built to withstand 1400 ft lbs and stay alive-
point being, STAYING TOGETHER WITHOUT BREAKING!!!
i know not every manufactured truck is alike, but i have witnessed a new duraslug kill 2 turbos with only 33psi of boost-
and that was just a 250 hp box added to it!
i currently own a 2002 dodge cummins, and drive a 99 flowerjoke everyday- BOTH are good trucks, well ok the dodge is alot better
so i got to stick up for the DODGE CUMMINS CAMP

this is proof without a doubt that DODGE OWNS ford and chevy-
now the one on the left is the chebby, the middle one is the furd, and the large cummins turbo diesel is on the right!!
as long as we all have fun with our diesels, then its all goooood
