Duramax gets spanked.....
I thought all this time that the Duramax was a big powerful engine??? I guess not since it was no match for a VW Toureg TDI !!! LOL!!!

Thinking that was his problem. There were no tire tracks or smoke coming from the front wheels, which was why the Touareg easily pulled him.
Those Touareg's aren't light, and 5,000 lbs on four wheels will beat 3,000 lbs on two wheels every single time. Some folks don't get how power doesn't win these; traction does.

Here's my favorite comment:
He lost because he has zero chances of winning unless the guy who drives the VW is an idiot and lets him win. a V10 diesel in a well built well thought out german truck, or a V8 in a plastic truck built by fat guys in Kentucky. It was an obvious, clear win for the VW and always will be in this battle lol

Pretty confident that a stock truck would have owned the Touareg. Even with a relatively weak front end they should be able to spin all four wheels on concrete and not break something. But when you put on a lift and big tires without beefing any of the supporting systems this kind of thing is bound to happen.

They actually do have a V10 diesel, and it is pretty impressive! I believe that the Porsche Cayenne? runs this same engine (Options on both). I am pulling these numbers from an old Top Gear (the bbc one) but I think over 500hp, and around 700ish torque. As you can imagine, the German's have developed a hell of an AWD/4WD system for these two!

I was off a lot!
It also seems as though they do not make the V10 TDI anymore.
