    Used Cummins Dodges localy?

    Been watching autotrader and Craigslist mostly out of curiousity, dont see any CTD's on any dealer lots?

    If this house Im waiting for doesnt come thru I've got a hard on for a CTD especialy after seeing the Powerstrokes fuel milage droping and breakdowns are growing with every year (6.4 didnt fix anything by the looks of it).

    I would tell your buddy to keep his 05 or 06...

    Lots of people are not happy with the new 08 and up Cummins/Dodge. From what I understand, the new emissions crap with the filter and the "recycle" to clean it has been nothing but problems. Basically the Computer dumps tons of fuel into it whenever this cycle happens, enough to get unburnt fuel into the exhaust so it burns in the exhaust and "cleans" the filter. Couple of people I know with them are getting terrible mileage (like 3-5 MPG less, 15-16 instead of 18-20) compared to their previous trucks, and theres a lot complaints on the web that it is so bad its getting fuel into the oil, etc....

    Also, there are aftermarket ECUs or flashes or whatever to remove that cycle but of course that voids your warranty.

    My dream is the 89-93, prime examples are 12-18k bucks, decent trucks are 6k or more so that dream is dead without extra cash.

    I would have to finance somthing so I would be limited to vintage. Older the better, every emision diesel I work on is a peice of crap, Ford gets worse every year and I HATE putting Isuzu injectors in chevy's, it sucks.

    The Common Rail 5.9 isn't an emission diesel by any means...the 03's - 05's don't have cats or anything.

    Actually, the first THE FIRST diesel dodge pick-up was a 1/2 ton, 4.0 I6 mitsu diesel...non-turbo. Iirc it made ~ 90-105hp....very slow, but would net mid 20's for mileage.
