550HP is only a fraction of the story. I have to guess about 1900 ft lbs of torque. I used to drive a Western Star with a 425 CAT and some serious hi-way gears. The truck was built specifically to haul from the "Big Dig" in Boston to the Johnston landfill in Rhode Island. It was a dog down low but, could easily top 100 MPH on the hi-way. From 50 MPH on, the thing pulled like a freight train. Smoked like one too when you had it planted.

And to the OP, 50-60k a year is pretty easy if you're willing to hustle.
