    Rodney that hurt my feeling.

    The only issue I have had with my 2002 Cummins is when the battery cables get all crusty the Torque Convertor locks and unlocks at around 45 MPH, it makes you think that the **** is fixing to go out. I have 200K on mine so far.

    Why use 8 cylinders when 6 will do? Cause they SUCK!

    Well, you know all about that don't you. ;)
    I guess you need 8 if 6 doesn't put out enough power. It's okay, they (dodge) are only tied for last with Ford. in HP and torque behind the Duramax. Or if you don't need to haul around the extra 300+lbs of useless cast iron on the Cummins. :)

    Ladies like the duramax. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

    And they like the big toys it can pull.

    Maybe you could do something like this to your farm truck Rusty:
    I have a much bigger and more powerful button

    How will you handicap the Duramax trucks? :)
    And do you have a cow I can put in the back, or do I need to invite one?

    RIght, unless you can stop the wheel from spinning it ain't showing power. Showing the dodge's wide tires for sure.
    That last one is awesome but the chevy guy never takes his foot of the brake. I suspect it was in park anyway.
    Like I said, the Duramax needs a cow in the back to equal the weight over the 1150lb cummins plus the other crap

    Cummins = heavier = higher MPG.
    Duramax = lighter = worse MPG.

    Wah????!??!?!??!?!

    Yah? less friction in the 6.. Funny how the world obeys some basic natural facts. Not like either of them spit out unburned fuel. With the scrubbers and crap you love so much yet don't have on yours they all lost economy. :(
