It smoked the Dodge Ram 6.4L setup in time pulling 20,300 lb gross up the side of the mountain in that test.
All of our 3500 service vans are 6.0 engines. Routinely go to nearly 300k miles with no servicing at all, just change the oil. Sold one with over half a million miles that never smoked, dripped, or burned oil, no noises either.
Definitely long lived...
