The down side to this story is that these engines, delivering massive torque for their sizes, are being placed in just about anything, including small and medium sized vans.
It's not uncommon for me to be tailgated by a couple of macons on their way to work at speeds of 100 mph+. I've been driving big (for our standards) diesel engines for some 17 years now and I'm no longer king of the hill. Just about anything can keep up unless I would really go for it.
