Cummins to Hemi?
Hi folks, Currently have a '14 3500 CTD with around 25K miles on it. When we were looking for a truck (2015) I was originally looking for a 6.4L, but couldn't find one with 4.10's, and the CTD end...

LOL the charts shows the repair costs being the same between the gas and diesel. Whens the last time you had to replace injectors on a Hemi, replace and clean the EGR system, replace a turbo, injector pump, DEF system, grid heater, adjust valve lash, EGT sensors, fuel filters, oil leak repairs, water pump, replace dual batteries, service dual radiator's?
And most of these things are items that you are probably not going to service within 5 years of ownership unless you were putting in a lot of miles which in that case all these items are better than replacing a whole engine. However, I know you are just listing them just so you can be like your neighbor. I could list the 10k to replace the fuel system on a Powerstroke, but I don't want to be like you and your neighbor.
Actually, no...it would be CHEAPER to replace a complete diesel engine than the exhaust filters! For the cost of ONE diesel truck exhaust filter, you can install a complete, rebuilt gas engine. Diesel has jumped the shark.
