I'll go with the 450hp number...torque in the 950-960 range with a flash upgrade once the Cummins numbers come out 2 months later. Ford will end up with "Class Leading" numbers. My brother has driven Dodge's for years...he just got a new Ram 2500 with the Cummins and it's not a bad truck. They used to look like the interior was put together using the cheapest plastic available and the interior fit and finish was really 2nd class.
Have to admit the new Laramie Longhorn is quite nice. I'll stick with Ford's. haven't had a problem with the 3 I've owned and my brother always seemed to be having drive line problems in the past. Hopefully they've got that ironed out.
