I have a copy of the 02/03 Peterson's 4Wheel & Offroad magazine and the tested a 2003 F250 4x4 Supercab longbed with the new 6.0 PSD/Torqueshift and it got a 1/4 mile time of 17.52@82.53mph.
I'm not sure but my V10 F250 doesn't feel that fast. I may be wrong-I don't race and I've never timed it.
The 03 Ram 4x4 ext cab shortbed with 5.7L Hemi did it in 17.88s@77.73mph.
Anybody have any 1/4 mile times for a stock V10 F250 4x4??

Does it say what the 0-60 time was? 17.52 is still mini-van slow! Yea I know its a 3 ton truck, but slow is slow. I think the 0-60 time comparison would be more intuitive.

Shoot-the new 6.0L PSD should be fast-it only costs $5100 as an option on a new SD and that's not including the extra tax and finance expense if you make payments. That's too much money for me to have bragging rights-I know a few guys that have new pavement queen diesel pickups that don't even own a trailer. Guess that just buy it as a status symbol?

I guess if I spent $5100 on my 2001 V10 I could get a lot more hp and torque. Probably could even beat the new 6.0 Diesel. After all it doing its power thing with a turbocharger. What would it do without it? Beat the V10 I don't think so.
Just my opinion when we talk apples we all need to talk apples and not apples and organges.

The Feb issue of Trailer Boats did a towing comparison with all three diesel pickups, and the 0-60 times they got were: Ford 9.9,Dodge:13.6, and Chevy 10.3. 0-60 times pulling a 10,400 boat were:21.5, 24.0, and 23.5 respectively.
The Ford 6.0 F-350 is their pick for tow vehicle of the year....

17's are not low end sports car. That is normal econobox slow. I would be surprised if some v-10 trucks (especially light 2wd models with steep gears and normal tires) cannot break that.
Man - how slow was the old PSD?? What do they claim the V-10 does?? I wonder how slow my 13,000 motor home is...might only be a few seconds worse, and it is carrying everything *including* the kitchen sink. Time to dig up the G-Tech!

Granted the new 6.0 is impressive, I have driven several customers units and have had the PLEASURE of wipping them in the 1/4 mile and the long run with my little ol V 10.
Mine will run that fast and then some. It loves to play with those marble motors.

I attended a Superduty dyno day last weekend here is Socal. My stock '02 V10 F-250 pulled 234HP at 41MPH on a Clayton interia dyno. A half dozen brand new stock 6.0's pulled between 270-285HP. Once they get the production bugs worked out, this will be one nice motor to have in a SD.

HiTech mount a calender so you can check you next pass down the 1320
The 6.0 is a sweet motor but 5100 buck buy a lot of gas! SO for it to pan out it would need to get 50 mpg or so vs the v10.
If I pulled in the mountains a lot I might think about the 6.0 but for everything else I'll stick to the V10
