I am trying to compare the specifications of these two trucks, and am asking on here, not because I am too lazy to do an internet search, but because my internet searches have not come up with much info.
My boss drives a 1999 Ford F-550 superduty that is a V-8 diesel, regular cab, 4X4, auto tranny.
I am trying to compare Horsepower, Torque, gas mileage, and towing/payload capacity between this truck and the Dodge Ram 2500 with the Cummins turbo-diesel motor. I am not sure what year the Dodge is, I am guessing between a 98 and 02. (I am not sure but I do not think it is the 610 high output motor). I believe it is an extended cab with 4 wheel drive and is an automatic.
If somebody could please tell me the above listed specs for each vehicle that would be greatly appreciated.
I believe that depending on the year and transmission the Cummins turbo diesel produces between 235 and 305 HP and between 460 and 555 lb-ft of torque, any links or references confirming or denying this would be great. I am also very interested in finding out the towing capacity of both, along with HP and TQ ratings for the Ford, along with average gas mileage of the Ford. (I have heard that depending on if driving with a load or not the Cummins gets around 15/16 in city and 18-22 highway)
Thank you for any help
