Anonymous - I appreciate the link however that rig sports 180hp & 420ftlbs, we would be better off with a used Dodge or Ford V10 gas dually as its nearly the same tq and double the hp.
Matt - Yeah I didn't look very hard, it's looked like the old manual from a Ford so I assumed.
The automatic for that year was a whopping 180hp with 420ftlbs and the V10 was much more powerful however like you said the Dodge V10 had problems, the Ford V10 had some spark plug issues the first year but after that was a great engine.
Either way, there is no way this thing could pull my rig...

EDIT: That truck is a manual so it has 215hp and 440tq, still waaaaaay under what would be needed.
Unless they're using the wrong photos, it's a 4x4 with an automatic, likely the 47RE.
The lever on the floor is the 4x4 control.
I never did research what the old Dodge Magnum V10s ran for power, I just know they had a lot of problems.
