I have been a diesel mechanic for 30 years. I have 2 cummins 12 valve trucks and a 1998 cat in my m/h. The most repairs that are made now days are fuel systems and exhaust . I will never buy one of these new diesels because of the cost to repair them and the lack of reliability. Gone is the million mile reliability of the diesel. The engine might last but at what cost to the remainder of the rest of fuel systems and exhaust? There are just so many sensors and computers on these things that just won't go that long anymore. Also the amount of labor to trouble shoot and repair is just crazy. Our main tool now days is a computer to plug in to the truck before when can do anything to them. I truly hate it. I will just keep my old reliable stuff going till I can't drive it anymore. Exracer2
