you ever thought of getting a mega cab dodge, you got all the room you'll ever need and the reliability of the cummins. Those 6.0's just scare me with all the problems they've had, if you get one get the newest one you can.

Better idea buy the ford then put a Cummins in it.

I do agree with you on the sound though, they sound awesome but ill keep my Cummins

 

the only problem they have really fixed from the beginning is the high pressure system the turbos still have the same problem it lies in the fact that the fuel is to dirty and cabons up the vgt and there is still only 4 head bolts around each cylinder so even on a stock motor it will blow a head gasket just a matter of time. and the valve train is just not that great not built for longevity. im not saying there junk but do still have some gremlins o and the egr and coooler still big issues.

 

^^^ headstuds and deleting the egr greatly increase the life of the 6.0

 

exactly -- and the straight piped 6.0 sounds f'in awesome! just about makes me want to trade my 7.3 in on a 06-07 6.0!!! but alas, cannot afford that at the moment... so I'll stick where I'm currently sitting - and a mega cab dodge is about the same size, maybe just a tad bigger than, a crew cab ford

 

Upside to the 6.0 is that they can be fast with only a Single Programmer. But I have had 2 a 04 and a 05 and neither one of them got good fuel mileage.

 

I owned a 2003 6.0 right before i bought my cummins. I put 54,500 miles on it and dinn't have a problem. I averaged 22 on highway and 18 in town. Thats with a 4 inch down pipe into 6 inch stacks, SCT programmer on extreme and cold air intake. The truck would run 13.4 all day in a quarter mile. It was fast and i pushed it HARD. I loved it but not the payment. I just sold it for 10,800 how sad. With just 800 to 1000 bucks you can out run mustang Gt's easy. Right before i sold the truck i raced a 2005 srt4 and won by 3 truck lenghts. I miss it.
