Vegas 24.1 GVWR = 14,500 lb
Hurricane 29M GVWR = 18,000
Simple math:
Vegas 24.1 has 47 lb per hp
Hurricane has 56 lb per hp
Vegas 24.1 has 34 lb per ft-lb of torque
Hurricane has 39 lb per ft-lb of torque.
So Vegas seems to come out ahead a bit on available power.

GVWR is one comparison, but the one that actually makes the difference is the actual weight. While my Axis E450 is rated at 14,500, I weights out at 12,500 fully loaded - which would make it even better. I don’t know about the Hurricane.
