I'm just wondering. I own a 98' 12v dodge cummins, and my dad owns a 2000 ford excursion with the 7.3L. powerstroke in it. Instead of actually hooking up the two, which diesel would win in a tug-a-war? Both stock engines, by the way -... JOIN NOW TO REMOVE TRACER

Default 2000 7.3L. excursion vs. 98' 12v cummins

I'm just wondering. I own a 98' 12v dodge cummins, and my dad owns a 2000 ford excursion with the 7.3L. powerstroke in it. Instead of actually hooking up the two, which diesel would win in a tug-a-war? Both stock engines, by the way -

excursion has more weight so it has the advantage there, you also don't say anywhere if it's a long box or short and the tires make a difference also, though if the cummins is an auto i'm gonna say the excursion would "win" and if the cummins is a stick the cummins should win if you know how to drive, there's to many things that affect the outcome of a tug of war so I'll be as honest as I can be and say I don't know who would win for sure -

Also doesn't say if either are 4x4 since that can be interesting with the front wheels smokin' too.

If they are OEM stock as indicated I think the Ford has it. -

the ford, the excursion wighs like what? 9900 gvw? plus the ford tranny is alot stronger than the dodge automatics. the cummins may have a lower powerband but if you can get the turbo to spool up on the ford than your not gonna stop it. -

Thats an easy answer
The Ford would. After all we know whats FORD means Fast On Race Day or First On Race Day , but all jokes aside I would love to know the answer when and if you do find out, being that I own a 99 F-350 with a 7.3 and an 05 F-250 with a 6.0, but I do love the looks and power of a dodge and you just cant beet there sound where there stacked, you hear them cumming form down the road -

That is a tough call. I know those Excursions are very heavy vehicles. I use to have one and I think it weighed as much as my truck and my truck sits at 8200lbs on the scale. Like said above a lot of other factors can come into play on this (Tires 2wd 4wd auto manual)

Ah hell, just hook'em up and let us know -
