pulling uphill in duluth or on the 501 is a good application for having low rpm, torque and acceleration capability and put it to use. people have "paid more" for that application (diesel) for years. so, now you get a gas engine that gives diesel performance at a cost less than diesel. a paradigm that is common. folks who don't like the huge additional cost of diesel and the cost of fuel difference are looking at the eco-boost with interest. not everyone is viewing this thread through the eyes of a HEMI.
i get that you are against the eco-boost and an expert on the subject. some good information from informed sources here to answer the OP's questions.
