I have been hearing that they 6.7 is experiencing poor fuel millage as well as particulate filter issues. I would look at http://www.turbodieselregister.com/f...-5/index3.html

and http://www.cumminsforum.com/forum/

HTH.

I've heard the same thing, but the exhaust particulate filter being the main issue.

I did a little reading about diesels (other than Ford) with particulate filters. I would stick to the older 5.9 Cummins for now.

Actually from what I've been reading it's more of a new technology thing than a brand specific problem. They all seem to be having similar problems, ECM reflashes, filters and such. I would agree with Blue Water Runner, if anyone's interested in a Dodge, try to find the last of the 5.9's, there are still some out there and dealers are discounting big to get them off the lots.
