Does anybody out there remember what the OP's question really was???
Yep, He was looking for a TV to tow about a 40' 16,000# to 20,000# 5er. He stated back on page 2 I think that the 5er was 40' weighing in at 16,000# didn't make it clear if that was Dry or GVWR.
Then once again we took a hard left into a diesel vs. diesel debate. Yes Cummins has bigger parts, bigger because of fewer, or because just beefier hard to tell.
What I do know is that with a six cylinder there are fewer parts moving and that can go bad.
Here in Portland we have a Cummins NW parts and service center, parts are cheaper than dealer and parts houses. If I needed service Cummins trained mechanics are a good thought.
