Programmers WILL voil your warranty because the new ECU takes count how many times the ECU has been accessed and a programmer will change this number. I would of gone with a gas truck and a supercharger over the diesel but it is a nice looking ride. Also the new diesels are terrible for emissions and alot of power can be had if that stuff if removed.

But you can get the duramizer from the dealership and it doesn't void your warranty.

Really???? My 04 3500 dually can pull a 44 foot camper trailer fairly easily. Just set cruise at 80 and relax. Mine is a 8.1 V8 and takes regular gas. Thing will pull anything. I doubt the 6.6 liter diesel version will pull any better.

My buddy has a 6.0 gmc with a 6 inch lift and 22's thats supercharged. That thing will pull anything like nothing was behind it! The truck also runs low 14's in the 1/4 mile. The truck pulls his full enclosed race car trailer with the car, tools, etc with out any problems!

I had a 6.0 supercharged with almost 500hp and over 500 tq. that thing went high 13's and pulled a full steel car trailer with cars on it with no problem and never went out of overdrive. I would say don't say a supercharged gas is less then a diesel unless you have driven one with a load on it.

Love the new truck and keep us posted on the mods you do to it!

This I have also heard and really it really pisses me off. Cause I would love to have a nice sounding exhaust on it with a edge programmer to get better fuel milage. So I gotta talk to some of the dirtymax vendors and see if I can get around it some how.

Only if the mechanic looking at it gives enough of a shit to even look for that, it's not like it's coming out of their pocket...
