Cummins. The Navistar 7.3 is okay, 6.0 is junk, 6.4 is a service nightmare.

No Duramax love? I havent heard a whole lot of bad about them in the recent years. Plus the GMs are pretty good looking trucks.

I think he meant hte 6.5 td..... we have one in our suburban and I like it, it really benifited from a 4" tbe, intake, heath deisel reprogramming etc, but it def. is not as good as the 7.3's. Thats my first choice because of the price, then a duramax

There have been so many different versions of the Duramax that it's hard to remember what is good and what is bad so I just stay quiet. :D

Well I am getting 12-13 in the winter with mashing on it almost all the time because that torque is so much fun and was better then that in the summer. Probably do get a bit better with the diesel tho. It is always fun to show a hot headed diesel guy with the gas too. Have beet an evo once as well, sorry mike had to say it.

Wow, thats pretty impressive.

I am lucky to see 15 on the hwy with my Dodge, being nice to it.
