When will they quit?

My dad brought up a EVERY valid point Soon thier Will be a stopping point it the power race of the big 3 diesels.If they continue to grow 300,400,400-500hp thier will not be a TRUE 3/4 or 1 ton because they have to get bigger this bigger that to handle the power and before long they will be in the 2 ton range.The trans grow, they axles grow and the frames grow so does the tonnage rating

I don't but soon they will need rebaging F300, F400 and when can we get a moror with the real low end grunt the 6.8l V10 has the most off idel torque even more than the 6.0 PSD.Atleast on the graph charts anyway I want a motor that you don't have to rev to 4 grand to bring home a bag of groceries even the 6.0 lost low end off idel torque compared to the 7.3PSD
