It won't pull like a 14 with a Playboy, yet it won't be so awfully slow either.

The 6.6L Duramax is an Isuzu commercial engine. Prior to that GM used Detroit Diesel engines.
I thought you were refering to the new 6.6L gasser instead of the Duramax, as the new 6.6L gasser is now the only engine available for the Express 4500. TBH it does surprise me GM never tried to fit the 4HK1 engine to the Express.
