exspensive hobby to say the least

Thatll be pushing the bottom end limits pretty good, with a stock turbo itll be tough.

How many miles on your truck?

Nice, 200k on mine, runs great.

And if you havnt changed those idler pulleys yet, thats a good thing to look into. Had one of mine destroy itself and get me stranded. Changed the other and she was on her way out too

Same as on here

I'll stick with the 5.9 too bad the contract is up with dodge and now ford has it in 2016 makes me wanna cry.... oh well maybe ford has a better automatic transmission and rear end. 165,000 miles on my old mans 5.9 and only problem to date was a crank position sensor

Ill always told my self if I were to get another diesel I'd get a cummins even tho your pretty much paying for the motor it's still a great proven motor . And where'd you here that , not saying you wrong by any means just curious to read up on it

Hate to hear that for you bro their awesome trucks till issues start popping up

I've only heard about the contract change from several people weather or not it's true no idea i just keep on hearing it so i assumed it's true, i also strongly support duramax motors combined with the allison great combo, now if only chevy would fix the fuel filter housing issues

Best way to solve that issue is to delete it and run a lift pump that has a filtration system to it . Little story about mine I had the Inlaws in town and went out to dinner got done hopped in the truck wouldn't start father InLaw said it just lost its prime so tried a combination of priming it the tryn to start like five times . Walked back from the frustration and at the corner of my eyes i found that I emptied the whole tank of diesel on the ground . Long story short had to get towed how just because of the filter housing lol
