Very interesting write up of a brand new truck put through the paces of a performance shop.

Pretty decent numbers but more impressive on e85.

not bad, but not a good rear-end gear ratio either, lol

Exactly, if it's fairly good with this terrible gearing, it gives hope to something with a 3.42 or 3.73.

I had not heard about the power difference on E85. That is very impressive.

Interesting test. E85 made a nice difference. I wonder it it would have increased it if was truly E85 and not at 65%?

Not with that 6 speed. The 3.08 gear is about like a 3.55 with a 4 speed. The speed gearing is very granny geared.
