    No he isn't, the Cummins is a better buy both from resale and reliability POV

    My money my choice. Its not stubborn. Im just tired of old ass out dated trucks. Rather have something new and modern. You guys are just brand loyal to toyota. Im open to change and like how the newer rams look over a tundra or the other big brands. Plus i want a diesel. Which toyota doesn’t offer

    Stock wheels go with it. He’s looking for another F-250 4 door 4x4with a flat bed. He said something about selling it for around $12k

    Understood. Cummins or power stroke is what I was told. Duramax is good but they tell me it’s harder to work on. Just what I’ve heard

    Lol, this guy. You know what forum you're on right? We can enjoy old ass out dated trucks because they last this long and are still reliable. Please, go buy a RAM though, it's right for you.

    duramax is a japanese diesel. isuzu design.
    powerstrokes are alright.
    cummins are alright.

    what kills them all is the bullshit Emissions junk
    the EPA has single highhandedly killed all the benefits of owning a diesel

    The Duramax is pretty tough to work on by comparison, it's a tightly packed drivetrain. They have some amazing technology helping them make crazy power on the stock equipment though.

    Ext cab 1st gen is just to small and not enough luxurious for me. I rather have something newer. I mean even my fleet spec ford transit rides better and has more luxurious then a 1st gen.
