How do you "thank" for posting? I tow new TTs from manufacturers to dealerships around the country commercially with an EcoD with a tow tune. I'm really surprisingly impressed. I'd tow that in my truck at 55 - 58 at 2,800 ish rpms.
It must be geared well using all the 375 TQ to move the load combined with more HP than my truck to move it as fast at the same ish rpm. Mine would do it all in 5th gear but I have 3.92s.
Like less torque but offset by more HP.

I'll be heading to Yosemite this summer and will take some videos of the truck pulling up the grapevine. That hill is much more intense.
