[QUOTE="EricM, post: 1066854, member: 20286"] Nearly 100% of the time, I'm not driving the truck aggressively. Who in the hell drives a 6000 lb truck aggressively more than every now and then, especially on public streets? Maybe I'm just getting old- and I know it's a "racetruck" and all- but damn, I have a car with 600 HP and a stick shift if I want to mash the gas, rip around corners and stand on the brake pedal at every stop. So yea, for me the area from 2100 and down is by far the most important area for the engine to deliver loads of torque with very little throttle input. That 3.5L at light throttle (ie not in boost) will be a dog compared to the 6.2L. Gears and weight will help, but the old saying will always be correct. Repeat after me class, "There is no replacement for displacement". Don't even start with the turbo argument- cause the bigger engine can use one of those just as easy as the smaller engine. Get used to that 10 speed shifting a lot. [/QUOTE]
