HD Diesel Duel - Ford F-250 vs Chevy Silverado 2500 vs Ram 2500 Quarter Mile Drag Race! 

This is awesome. What a great lineup. How about hook up 14000 lbs behind each truck and do a 1/4 mile test???

Due to the cost of diesel, this just turned into the most expensive drag race in history!

Holy cow, the F250 back-halfs like a freight train! The Duramax had it beat in all incrementals until the 8th, then that 6.7L Powerstroke put on the afterburners, lol. 😊💪

love how these guys get right into it and dont mess around for 5 mins before the race

Nothing better than an early Saturday morning diesel drag race.

As an owner of the same Ford in the video, I will say the power throughout is rather impressive. Almost feels more powerful 60-100 than 0-60.

I am a GM guy.. but videos like this is why I tell all my friends all the trucks are crazy good, just get the one you like best 👍

I remember the first of your shows I watched, the drag races between all manufacturers at the Fiesta Six Flags lot in San Antonio. I had just bought an F150 with the 2.7, and was amazed at how quick it was and what great mpg it returned. Fast forward a few years and you all have built a sweet little media empire.

Well done guys! I would be interested in hooking all 3 trucks to 15k lb load and doing the race again. Not just to see which is faster, but to compare how the trucks handle the pull (egt, trans temp and shifting ect).

The prophylactic analogy really clarified things for me, thanks Roman! 😂

I’ve been waiting for this race since the 2020 F250 diesel came out and you finally did it. Awesome guys!

Love the videos and all you guys are great I’ve just started watching some of the TFL classics with those older cars and being 50 it’s neat to see some especially with miles on them

I am so happy for you guys and how much the channel has changed and grew over the years!! Podcasts and these videos are absolutely incredible!! Thanks for all the information and keep up the incredible work!!👍

Love the drag races. The quarter mile changed the dynamic so much. Great video guys and thanks for getting these trucks all together at once.

I had no idea I needed this video. Awesome video fellas!

This is beyond exciting! Races from this point on will be much more exciting!

FINALLY, and THANK YOU. This is the exact type of comparison I’ve been looking for in the HD segment. Real world, real time race to see which is quickest and where they are quick (just off the line or across the line up). If we can get the zero to sixty times it’d be ideal. Doing another segment with the gas versions of these HD’s and 0-60 times would be icing on the cake. If y’all can, adding a drone view to see how they accelerate through out the 1/4 mile would help versus just seeing from behind or from drivers seat. Y’all are awesome, thanks again for this, very helpful.

The torque management is holding the Ford back at the beginning. Even with the traction control off there is still a torque management system that doesn’t let all 1050 ft lbs loose at once.

Just when I thought the channel couldn't get any better you guys bring this video class leading content boys

Very good , thanks for sharing guys I enjoyed it.

They are all close enough, and since they are heavy duty pickups, it just doesn't matter; interesting though.

Andre is cool. All of you guys are great. Thank you for all of your content over the years.

I like that you guys rub them over and over instead of just going with the first results. Keep up the good work guys

It’s interesting to see how close they all really are with completely different power plants and power outputs.

I wish y’all would have done 4wd races too. I’m guessing the Ford has the most torque management off the line.

Awesome guys, looking forward to future races as well!

Great Video. Thank you fellows.

Hands down my favorite truck channel

Love the new drag race location…..you guys keep upping your game

Love the new setup! Can't wait to watch more of these, especially with almost the entire midsize segment getting overhauls this year. Good times ahead!

It would be nice to see what they can do with 4x4 boosted launches. 3+ sec 60’ is brutal.

Love it! Great job y'all

Finally! great content, keep it up

Great to see the channel continue to grow figuratively and literally 👌 From 1/8 of a mile to +1/4, from press vehicles and rentals to an entire fleet! 👍 From manufacturer designed test courses to TFL's own proving ground @ Tumbleweed Ranch! 🤯 and I can't leave out lil Roman to Tommy! 😅 The TFL crew is doing an incredible job 👏 👏👏

Thank you for finally pointing out the innuendo in the truck names, Roman! 😂 goes to show these trucks are partially targeted at people with something to prove.

Stoked you guys can now send vehicles 3 wide down a quarter mile. This is gonna make for some great content

2:14 Roman being a little suss saying Cummins lol C’mon man 😂.

I wonder how the Cummins High Output would do. I know the Aisin is slower shifting, but the HO really goes!!!

Love it. You guys have come a long ways from Roman and Nathan taking turns riding in the bed of trucks around the neighborhood.

THIS WAS AWESOME THANKS.

Tbh I'm pretty surprised at the Cummins for keeping up that well

Get the high output Cummins… specs are closer to the others.

That was fun to watch with my coffee this morning. The Ford just needed to get warmed up a little. Great job Andre!!

Excellent job 👏

I knew the Ram would lose BUT what was most impressive was how well it kept up with these trucks, despite being down substantially in power and gears. Yes, the 3.73s help, but not the HP and torque deficit that it has.(**reallllyy wish this was a H.O. w/ Aisin for true apples to apples). The Chevy was impressive off the line and through the race, which makes one wonder when they update the Duramax next year, will it be the true hot-rod HD!? And of course rhe Ford's endless torque was going to bring it towards the end.

I’d like to see how the cummins compares to the high output. It’s numbers are a lot better at 420hp 1075ftlbs

Epic! Glad to see the full quarter mile lol love the new track

Love to see all three on pulsar’s and see which one runs better after a little tuning and intake mods.

The reason why the ford was slow to take off, was because the traction control was not fully disabled. You have to hold down the traction control button for 10 seconds to fully disable. Otherwise it still cuts power to prevent slipping.

Super glad you guys said the transmission and most importantly the REAR END RATIO makes it so much more interesting that despite being gear the lowest the dodge was not the quickest off the line

Thank you fellas. I appreciate the content always. I would like to see 1-Ton match ups both duly and non-duly. Especially the HO Ram 3500 against the others. Just to see. However, I think duramax has been taking the acceleration lead for over a decade if I’m not mistaken. Go Detroit 3. ATW! Yay!!!

Love the content. In the video I noticed that the Ford driver was preloading the engine for the race which I believe explains why the truck is so slow off the line. I own a 2020 F20 diesel and every time I preload the engine for takeoff it falls on its face off the line. If I just punch it off the line it takes off way faster. Also, the 2022 F250 Diesel truck does come with an available 3.55 rear axel ratio as well as the 3.31. Thanks

Keep up the good work guys. Great show today.

I'm suprised how well the cummins kept up. I6 for the win! Much easier to work on. At least they don't bury the turbo in the back of the intake where you have to take the cab off to get to it

Love this video.

I've been watching you guys forever. Andre could barely speak English when I began watching 👍. And I tune in for all the drag races that you have done plus so much more. But on every drag race video I've always wished you had a bigger track. You know, quarter mile. I had to pause the video at about a minute 30 seconds in as I heard you have an airstrip you can run on now. Why did I have to pause the video,. So I can say that I am happy to see you have a place to do quarter mile / plus racing. Okay it's an almost 12 minute video and I'm less than 2 minutes in. I'm going to unpause it now that I have made my comment because I can't wait to see what is going to happen. 👍🤟😁🍻🤔. Since I rarely leave comments I'm going to say also, love Tommy, the Nathan method. Andre, and everybody else. I'm leaving it there so it doesn't get longer than it already is. Thanks for the great content I'm going to unpause this now! Oh, final thought before and past this. I hope you set up some really challenging stuff at the ranch for the future 4x4 videos 😎

The Ford looks so good.

Man that red Ford is beautiful! The Duramax Allison combo is a good setup but imagine having to see the hideous thing every day when you step out of your house!

Awesome !!!! love this data. need weighted drags etc.

Classic TFL stuff!

Fun video guys! Looks like the fords torque limiting is keeping down off the line.

Impressive how close they all are, I am a Ram fan all day long and have a 19 with the 6.7. Pretty impressed how nimble it actually is..

You guys are the best 👍🏾

great drag race but an even better test is hooking them up onto the pullin sled

"Doesn't matter because they all have different transmissions" Might wanna check on that transmission in the Ford and chevy and see how different they are lol

I've had all three. The Duramax felt a lot more powerful, but a pedal commander makes a huge difference for the other two.

that second turbo on the f-350 definitely picks up when you get to the 5th and up gear range.

thanks for this I saw your dodge vs chev and wanted the ford mixed in with it so thank you

Would really like to see some 4x4 drag races with the 3/4 tons!

This race could be run on another day and wind up with completely different results, depending on each one’s PDF load. DPF definitely has an effect on performance. Ever notice how spunky a diesel can feel right after a DPF regen?

Nice work!! Way to go Ford!!! Love you guys content!!

I would like to see this test done with the high output cummins. You guys should definitely do that.

Been waiting for this race! Very interesting on the 1st race how the GM took off but after a few more passes, looked like it loss some of its grunt. Cummins did well against the V8 and I don’t think the HO would do any better with that commercial grade Aisin. Ford seem to get faster by every race lol, great video!!!

I think Roman is getting to that age where the dad jokes turn into dirty old man jokes.

Did you try the Ford in “sport” mode? If you double tap the traction control button you can access it

This is good stuff.

I'd like to see the high output versions of this race, the Ram with 420 hp and 1075 ft lbs torque vs the Ford and Chevy's (they don't have a high output but are the same across the board)

Great video guys. Having a full 1/4 mile race with the ability to do a 1/2 mile race is awesome. The look on Nathan's face in race #2 when he gets passed is priceless. But Roman's analogy of the Power Stroke, DURAmax and Cummings to a condom is pure genius!

I’m back active to this channel!! And this is the best diesel drag race since the old trio from the old Top Gear USA. Mah hart and soul belongs to GM!!!

Finally a simple test you never get to see.

I really wish you would test the 1-tons against each other instead. Everyone knows the ram is detuned in the 2500, and I would love to see the HO ram 3500 against the rest so it’s biggest and best from each. Please do this in the future!!

Ford detunes its engine in 1st and 2nd gear to save the drivetrain. It shows when the second half of the race it starts pulling on the Chevy.

😂🤣 You're killin me. Power Stroke - DuraMax - CUMmins.... got it!

Dear Guys, I love you show. When will you do a 6x6 TEST?

Would have liked to see the drag race in 4 wheel drive also.

No matter what at the end that straight 6 will keep going years from now

That " WHAT THE HELL" reaction 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This was one of the longest 1/4 mile race videos I have ever seen. This was like watching Fast and Furious

this is something ive wanted to see for a long time. Especially for other vehicles and trucks 1/4 mile is the way to go. 1/8 mile with no space to slow down i think held ya back.

I own a 16 powerstroke and I have to say she is a BEAST! Ive deleted her and with a tuner the fuel mileage and power increase is INSANE! Hands down in a Super Duty model you simply CANNOT beat a FORD!

I kind of wish they would post more diesel truck drag races in tv like they do with cars

You know, in the real world, all these are pretty close. All of these are great options.

I find it really hard to believe a low output Cummins could keep up with the power stroke at the beginning

Now hook up the trailer's 👍

I wish I owned any of these beasts!!

Love your videos, ALWAYS watch what you got, HOWEVER I will just say this: NO one buys a diesel truck for it's quarter mile performance.

The Ford has so much power management

wouldile to see them doing this race with a little weight. one thing ove always known about HD trucks is they really show there impressive muscle.

I love FORD for a reason and always will! GREAT VIDEO GUYS!!!!!!

What are the axle ratios in the trucks? That will make a huge difference in the times and towing capacities.
