Re: Sweet Cummins

Why people want a Cummins over a 6.2 or 6.5??? I think they are louder than the 12v!!! Not to mention friggin' worthless. When was the last time you saw a Cummins in the junkyard?? I found one and that it's a city bus. I lost count of how many GM diesels I see.

The fact that you can modify them very easily and cheap, get over 600lb/ft of torque and decent economy. Can you do that to a 6.2/6.5? And how long will it last??

Every vehicle I've ever owned was a GM, but two. I had a Honda Integra when I was in Japan, and now have my late father's 08 Tundra. I'm a diehard Chevy guy, but would never own a GM diesel over the Cummins.

As for the Dodge not being able to climb a curb, that is pretty sad, but was probly out of tune, needed some pump work. Buddy inlaw has a Dodge that is like that, not all of them are like that.....
