i think people are expecting to pulse and glide.

Therefore using the extra torque for a shorter acceleration period and a longer glide period.

more torque of course wouldn't help if you can't use all of it.

With my 71 Lb-ft @3000 diesel my foot isn't on the floor all of the time, therefore the engine is too big, that's my take.
