Dmax hands down as it's been the same basic 6.6L engine for 15+ years now and still going strong. Why try to change perfection and such a long proven record? Do it right the first time and you don't need to redo it to play catchup over and over! Nearly 200K on our ordered new 2004.5 LLY Dmax CC LB 4X4 and it's never had ANY repairs either wanted or needed to the Dmax/running gear and runs perfectly. Has only been used for RV use with our Carriage 5th wheel or our big 11'4" Lance TC.
Not remotely for sale and no chance of trading either as we'll keep it till we stop RV'ing (both 74 now) . No dents or scratches or rust and the paint is still bright and shiny and the interior is still in excellent condition. We live in Michigan where they salt the roads in winter! The only repairs ever done to the entire truck is replacing the front brake pads at approx 125K (rear are still OEM) and replaced 2 burnt out light bulbs. Gets excellent fuel mileage loaded or unloaded. Why would we want a newer truck when we have a superb one now?
