theres always some kind of redundancy built into these trucks, you cant just build the whole driveline for that certain number of horsepower or torque. For example the rears in these truck in stock form are know to handle at least 2x the stock out put and still move along reliably. Like I said asuming they put the allison behind it again, in there form are good for another 100 reliably, obviously they will do minor changes to keep that amount of rdundancey so they can warranty it. we arent talking huge amounts of power here


As far as toyota, yea they dont say much simply for the fact that it's a concept, to see what kind of feed back they could get, and dont forget that truck had a all new industrial rated all Jap HINO diesel in it, which helps bump the price, but you have to think already for dulley's owners are forking over 70 grand, well were until everything else happend.

 

duallys arn't pulling 70k yet.. maybe for all the towing equipment from the aftermarket and a trailer. but for just a dually with a good bit of options is maybe 50k msrp. if anyone paid 70k they bought the laramie fully loaded and weren't so smart and paid sticker lol

 

I agree to a point, it just depends on what part of the country you live, and how much they are mark up. Of cousre now there not getting neer that much for them.

 

A King Ranch F-450 doesn't even go for 70k at the Ford dealership I work out. They sticker at about 60k and you could probably buy one for a bout $50k with the market as it is right now.
