Ive got both, the v10 will not pull anything like my 7.3, never will. However its really quiet going down the highway. Best mileage I ever got is 15 with it. Great engine, always starts, I love it, but for pulling, its not even in the same ball park at the diesel.

geez, thanks guys a night sleep and i came to my senses before i had even logged back on lol. dads 7.3 6sp was a beast! that thing would top a hill, a big hill with 23,000# at 70 if you hit it at 73-75, with super tuner @ 60hp. wow, it was a nice tow rig. my auto on 90 hp with mods listed would top the same hill at 62ish. but, auto is a lot of that difference imo. our old 460 auto 96 was same package as my 97 7.3 and would top a hill about like my truck, maybe a lil slower. but, i do wanna step up to the initercooler, wastegate, big turbo, and all that. and my next one i want tow hoooks up front.
