Mercedes Trucks do have a 155,000 mile powertrain warranty, a bit longer than what you get a Chevy or Ford, and Unimog has to hit the Euro VI emissions standards too, which probably play a role in engine tuning.  But we are comparing commercial truck to retail/personal use truck here.  The Merceds Actros has 3,000 lb-ft of torque, granted it is a 15.6 liter engine, but Mercedes has no problem making torque out of their engines.

Daimler is also the #1 commercial truck seller on this side of the pond too, they know trucks better than anyone.  Daimler invented the truck after all:

Blah Blah Blah Mercedes 7.7L is weaker than the much smaller displacement :unitedstates: Diesels. 

Shouldn't it be like 600hp/1200lb-ft of torque? They should get with the times already.

Yes...don't know if it would fit without major mods... a Power Stroke diesel Mustang would be interesting also (I think some of those have been swapped into modern Mustangs).  

With the more compact pushrod design, I doubt its much or any physically larger than the DOHC Coyote.
