Another couple questions I would like to ask, how accessible is the engine on these? Is it possible for me to do all the regular drive train maintenance on a DP or gasser? I usually do most everything required on my Dodge (especially since it is out of warranty) and our 5er (at least I have the previous ones).
In theory it is possible. Not easy but possible. Initially I wanted to stay away from a DP for that reason. However now there are YouTube videos on exactly how to do the work. I even saw a video on how to do your own maintenance on a diesel generator! BTW DP units have commercial engines and transmissions and have much longer service intervals vs. gas rigs or even diesel pickups.
Good to know. I have learned tons of things from YouTube. It has saved me on a lot of things.
