Really now? I'm starting to wonder if you're the one with DING! CRAP!
Everyone is entitled to an opinion. I just don't see how 90% of the people that live within 30 miles of me that i know, most of whom are farmers/ranchers, don't use any fuel additives, hardly ever have to have injectors or pumps rebuilt, and don't pull the ever living hell out of them. Almost all are Dodges BTW. Hardly any of these guys ever have their trucks worked on unless they hit someone. Maybe where you live your diesel is different than ours, and maybe you drive a chevrolet or something but the only dodge I've ever heard anyone complain about was an 07 6.7 and dodge wound up giving the guy another truck because it was electrical related, not engine related.
Typical Cummins owner, you guys all believe the Cummins is perfect and never breaks. That's just silly. My diesel and yours is regulated by the government. Older trucks and new trucks benefit from a good fuel additive like Stanadyne.

I'm also pretty willing to bet that one of the best engine mechanics in the world for pickups lives about 60 miles from here and he's the one that told all of us not to use a bunch of that crap. Besides that, how many diesels are in New Hampshire? I'll bet not very man per capita I probably own more diesel engines that most towns back there.
LOL nice .....Best engine mechanic in the world for pickups.....At least you have a sense of humor!
ding!... see this is only the last page and it's full of people who dont know what they're talking about... To the OP do your own research on the web and test drive all of the trucks you are considering.
I have owned and driven the big three for 14 yrs now. We own a tree service and do alot of pulling. Not sure where you are getting where I dont know what I"m talking about. I've did alot of research on the forum about these trucks. All the stuff I've stated in my last post is from my own experience. Not sure what you think is crap. As of right now I have 4 diesel trucks and the gmc by far is the best one.
To the OP I think it also comes down to how much you want to spend. Of the big 3 they all have there problems. Of the big 3 I have had the least amount of problems with my GMC.
So because you've owned a few trucks you think that means you know what you are talking about? Do you really think that your Duramax makes 628hp at the wheels with just a tune? It's not your fault you don't know what you are talking about. You probably are just listening to what someone has told you. Custom tunes are available for all computer controlled diesel pickups. You guys can get all bent out of shape because I am calling you out. I kind of expected that.
