A diesel tech on another forum says as long as you don't tune a 6.0 and take care of it, it's a good engine.
If you put in studs and a few other things he says they're great.
He also says the Fords and Chevys are what keeps money in his pocket as he doesn't see many Cummins...
You just proved the point about the 6.0. Unless YOU add studs and a few other things ($$$).... Hell, the 6.5 TD also had the potential to be a great engine to with some "extra" work.
I'd rather have a 6.5, honestly. Bad as it is, at least it doesn't have all the problematic emission garbage. Also, the later (Optimiser 6500) 6.5's are actually pretty good.
