Proves nothing. Everyone knows you hold it until the other guy spins, and then drag him to the graveyard. Sorry. It still looks like fun, though.

It is neat...I've heard and seen both advantages for Dodge and Ford (Chevy...well they have the Allison I guess )

Anyway...it just comes down to - If you like Ford you stick with Ford, If your Dodge nut then Dodge is your thing...

Still... neat videos!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharin'

As for the comments....they are just, well, comments/opinions/wishful thinking

Hey...maybe get both trucks wearing drag slicks and hit the throttle

well,it does show one thing for sure. ford owners are smarter and know how to pull,hahaha. the cummins is a good motor,but its in a dodge,so screw that. i don't care which one has more power i'll be in a ford and if i have to i'll MAKE it run better. i don't like gm's or dodges so i don't drive em. i don't even have to know which one is faster,stronger more dependable cause i like how fords drive. my grandpa just traded his 07 350 for a d-max cause ford was jerkin him around not wantin to fix it,it has some good power(thanks to the allison) but its still a gm and its too cramped,drives good but gm still can't get their touchyass brakes right for me.

I test drove a 6.7 yesterday and I wasn't impressed at all! My dads 6.0 PSD feels like it has more power Although I know it doesn't, it just felt plain sluggish.

Sure would be nice if you could order a new pickup like you can a new semi.....Superduty platform with a cummins under the hood and an Allison to hook it up.......Man that would be sweet

I think it has a lot to do with the gearing and transmission shift points. The tuner really woke mine up, but I think it had more to do with the transmission tuning than engine tuning.

I was referring to the 6.7 cummins not your 6.4 PSD. I've driven a 6.4 and it makes the cummins look like a V6 gas burner
