Save up a few more pennies and pick up an early 200x Duramax or 5.9 Cummins. I don't think you would be to happy with either of your two current choices.

X2!!!!

If you are considering diesel look at all three, you can find a Dmax or Cummins in newer years that will knock your socks off.

why people think Ford is the only way to go is crazy.
Loyal Ford owner for 43 years, I chose to go with the Ram/Cummins for a Diesel. Never looked back.
Yes my Cummins has 280,000+ miles and is still towing strong, that is the beauty of a diesel.

I thought the same so we gave a 5.9 cummins RAM a try for our farm/ranch use. After constant phone calls of needing to foot the bill for a repair I finally decided to cut my losses and purchase another 7.3 PSD Super Duty. And this is from a long time GM owner.

BTW... My wallet is a witness to the above. :M

Fish your crappy money pit Cummins story is getting old. Not all are good, but you Likely bought someone's beat up truck!

He lives in an alternate universe. He has to. You know; where down is up and up is down. He has to, to state a 6.0 or 6.4 are better engines than a Cummins. :B

I did not purchase someone's beat up truck. It had 3 injectors replaced and a rear end seal replaced before we purchased it. It was an older couple that traded it in because the gentleman was having some difficulty with the manual tranny. It has been replaced with a 7.3 PSD Super Duty for a year now and I've yet to received a phone call needing to approve a repair.

In addition I've never recommended to anyone to purchase a 6.0 or a 6.4 PSD. I've only shared our experience with my 05 and my BIL 04 trucks that gave us really good service.

Sorry you don't the outcome here so you can prance your little stories, but it is what it is. :W
