No one is saying the V-10 is THE most powerful engine out there. However, I'll say it again, the test that Truck Trend did 2 years ago on the 2008 models had all of the maker's diesel and gas rigs towing a 28' bumper tow up the same hills, down the same drag strip, both solo and towing. The only difference was that the V-10 truck had a 4.10 rear, as did the Chevy and Dodge gassers, while all of the diesels had a 3.73 rear. The Ford V-10 was faster than all of the gas engines and equal to or superior to all of the diesel engines. In fact the only time the V-10 was out-done was the 6.4 Ford diesel test up a 11% grade. Yes, the V-10 is cheaper, not only by the initial $7,000 cost but in maintenance costs as well. If you tow heavy alot, then by all means get a diesel. If you tow a boat or RV trailer once in a while, then you can't beat the V-10. If you don't hop up your diesel, you will be passed up by the new V-10's, cause I've done it. In fact, you'll have to hop up your diesel to out do a new V-10.
