And it's bullshite.
If I post a horsepower number that's off by 25% my arse is going to get laughed out of the industry. These goons just slap whatever kind of fairy tale number they want on the sticker and tell you you're driving wrong when you don't get it.
Automobile customers are not demanding enough and the manufacturers know it.

Tow ratings, hp/tq numbers, mpg. It's all the same. Just arbitrary numbers used to sell trucks
It would be really nice if they started dyno'ing trucks at the tires to get actually power numbers. I know I'm putting down more power with my 4.10s than someone with 3.42s, but no one would ever know if they didn't know about gearing. I also know I'm gonna get much worse overall mileage. We're talking about the higher gears getting 13/14mpg and lower getting around 10
