Not really. Sequential turbocharging is used to multiply pressure to get more boost in the engine. And whamo - more torque.

The new design looks awesome. The interior change is a big plus as well.
Don't mean to sound like a traitor, but if I were going for a deisel, it would definately be the new Ford, at least until Chevy gets on top of the game with a better deisel engine design, better exterior styling, and a better interior.
Though, when it comes to gas power, Chevy is at the top of the pick.
That Ford truck has a price tag of around $65,000+ A bit out of my price range of affordable...... I'm sure the 4x4 F-350 Dually will be in the price range of $50,000. Oh well, still can't afford it.

Is that tow rating of 24500 lbs. for real??? I think a standard single rear wheel Duramax is rated at 12000 lbs, less than half

i dont like the new interiors of the fords.
Heck i wish they wouldnt have changed the interior on the chevys, i like my 2000 interior better than any of them.
But the new Dmax has 660TQ IIRC.
My brothers Dmax is still living with all the crap he puts it through. Just the 6speed manual is the weak point.

I dont like the way everybody keeps changing body styles so much.
