    Looking at a 2017 579 with 455 hp multitorque. 1550 torque with 1750 in top two gears. Can anyone tell me if they perform ok or are they a dead horse?

    Its going to pull like a dead horse compared to what you are driving.
    The 510hp/1850tq wont win any races, but holds surprisingly good in the hills.

    What type of trailers do you haul?
