Weight to power ratio.

[Fiesta48]

We're on our first diesel. Thinking about upgrading again to larger MH. Maybe a American Eagle. I'm a power seeker. Did some calcuations.
My 15 Discovery is 33k lbs with 380hp and 1150 ft lbs. 35 to 45 mph up very steep hills.
To my surprise an Eagle is 51k lbs, with 600hp and 1950 ft lbs.
But the weight to power ratios are all nearly for both. Therefore NO increase in acceleration and hill climbing ability.
For lighter diesel coaches with smaller engines this will follow too. But much better than gassers.

My belief is the 1950 ftlb torque will make a big difference and you will keep the speed going up the steep hills, even with the increased weight in the eagle.
