Just my take on the gm 6.0 power train. I have owned 2 of them and can attest to its power and reliability and so can others. Yes on paper it's lesser on the HP and TQ ratings. But it will hang with the other offerings or even perform better in test. To each his own opinion, but I like mine. Granted I just tuned it with Blackbear and dumped some of the TQ management which in turn has woke this engine up even more. I figure it's so darn reliable, GM will probably continue to keep it around. I see a strong possibility of direct injection being used with it. I have met other owners that have high miles with their trucks and still run and work as they should. It will be interesting to see what GM does with it. 2018 models are right around the corner and one source I had read stated that GM was going to dump a gas 3/4 ton and would stick just with diesel. Now I can't see that, and the web loves to speculate.... Lol
