If it was a V8 Camaro then the Duramax had alot more than a tuner on it. Got to test my truck this weekend for the first time after installing the new turbo and CP3 and man does it tow! Truck is becoming an animal. Had 2 sleds on the sled deck and 8 sleds and a bike on the trailer and it rarely downshifted out of overdrive pulling up the hills on I-75. However at 75mph and roughly a 8-9000# load I was only getting 10mpg. I guess it wasn't all that bad since the truck is also on 35" tires but I was still hoping for a little better.

it was a 426hp v-8 camaro and a duramnax with a tuner...both ran 13 seconds. the duramax was a 4 door and had a better 0 to 60 time. if the truck wasnt a 4 dooor it would have spanked it. i have run cummins and one powerstroke so im not a duramax freak. im sure 4wd helps it launch.
