Do any of you fellers have experience with the 06 to early 07 Dodges with the last run of the CR 5.9 Cummins? I'm looking at a built one which may replace m,y 7.3 truck... I know the mechanicals pretty well, but am looking more for first-hand pros/cons. I won't buy a 6.4 Powerstroke and right now I think the jury's still out on the longevity (beyond 150K mileage) of the 6.7 Fords and Dodges... Most of the Duramaxes (owners) are just too darn high for me to consider them... Looking at an '07 with 235 on the body, but 40K on a built 5.9 and matching tranny + T-case, A.M cam, slightly bigger injectors, studs, etc... Looks and runs good for $16K. It's a bit higher price than I want to pay but right now, between emissions issues, market demand, inflation and the fallout from cash-for-clunkers, it's largely a seller's market...
Right now a new(er) 5500 Ram is a bit out of the budget as I'm shooting in the 15-20k range, preferably on the lower side.
Feel free to PM me if you want.
