Perhaps the Cummins that dusted you had a TST kit
or the Cummins uprate kit installed. Both producing
230hp and over 600lbs of torque. A co worker friend
here has an F350 CC dually auto/4.10. We've run
several times before beer. I can take him by about
6 feet 0-60 every time. But every time I've gone up
against an F250 PS, all I can see is his tailgate
disappearing in the distance ahead. I have no idea
what the difference would be. Aside from having his
E4OD rebuilt at 70k, his truck has been totally
trouble free. He's never checked his mileage.
