I have to admit I am bias towards the cummins NOT CUMMINGS! Here are some of my experiences. the 7.3 powerstroke is a good engine. I have seen many last 200,000 but when they do break look out. The injectors themselves are a 280 a piece. I have seen many that the manifolds warp and that also is expensive. The cummins stay away from the trucks that have the 53 block they are notorious for cracking, they were in the 98 1/2 to 2000's I believe. You can look up on the front of the block drivers side and tell which you have. The lift pumps for the vp44 are notorious for going bad but cheap to fix if the vp44 goes bad look at about 1200. The early durmaxes are junk I have seen numerous ones with busted cranks, dropped valves etc. Around 02 is when they got ok. The 6.0 powerstroke is junk stay away completely. Stay away from the dodge autos. I have two cummins both with well over 300,000 miles. One a 99 and the other is an 01. Just my 0.02
