If you want to compare total cost of ownership, you should know that the 6.4L Hemi in the trucks requires the same full synthetic 0w40 oil that the SRT cars require. Oil changes at the dealer are around $100. It takes 7 quarts like someone mentioned earlier. It only needs 87 octane, not 89 like the 5.7L though in case someone was wondering.
The oil isn't much of a big deal to me since I'd likely use synthetic in the winter anyway as it gets dang cold here (-40*).
Thats Celsius right?

I'll just chime in about cost of diesel maintenance. There is none with certain engines. Others are well, quite expensive.
45Ricochet, that isn't 100% true, but I will say 12 qt of oil every 10,000 miles isn't bad, I can get my Fleetguard oil and fuel filter from the local Cummins dealer for $12 and $18, but other than that just keeps on running.
I need to update signature as I just rolled 275,000 miles, headed back from the Moon now!
