How many horsepower does a Ford coach have?
Torque (read that high torque at low RPM) is what allows you to climb a grade at an RPM that won’t hurt your ears or your engine. Said another way, a current Ford V10/F53 chassis produces 362 HP. But, look up the RPM. Our new coach has 400 HP (not much more than 362) but has 1200 lb-ft torque at 1300 RPM.
