No...not sure what truck you are referring to. It was a great truck with a lot of power.
The fact that diesels do all of their work in the lower rev range is a positive, not a negative. All of those truck and engine designers are not idiots.
Go to the 24 hours of Sebring or Daytona sometime and school those Audi team guys on the undesirability of their low-revving race car. You can catch up with them at the winner's party at some hotel when they're drunk.
