Its the fuel Issue, That hurt Germany its tanks when ran and had fuel were great. I have read they had like 10 to 1 kill ratio against Russian T-34s in some cases. The Sherman were not up to German, Or Russain tanks later on in the war. Its they ran and were more dependable then anything Germany had. Plus big plus here Americans were able to repair Sherman in the field very fast and any part that was able to be reused was. Sorry if I got off subject. The Omega

You also have to have men capable of using the technology in those tanks. Hitler´s strategy was both getting the troops short of men and also built new units with no adequate know-how of their equipment.
