Even the dodge cummins turbo diesels have between 215 and 325 hp depending on what year you're looking at, and 12v vs. 24v, among other things. Really not a whole lot for something that would pull a 24' enclosed trailer without flinching. What you do get is a shit ton of torque, a sturdy frame, transmission, brakes, etc, lots of wheelbase, etc... all the things that matter in towing. For towing the HP figure just doesnt matter.
