Interesting. I'd like to see the torque curves on those though- peak tq is pretty high for all around towing performance unless it's pretty flat. I'm dubious about Ford's maximum tow claims on a 1500 from what I've seen on current models. Anything over 7500 you really need to step up to a 2500 IMHO.

However looks like a really strong line-up and the twin turbo could be very interesting since they can program in the torque to start extremely low. Wonder why that model is included but the specs aren't listed?
