Power stroke ?

[Dude]

I don't agree with this one if I read it right. You can get a lot of bang from the goodies but on a Powerstroke most of them are expensive.

yes that is true, and a PSD is a waste of money to even "hot rod" the motor.

We all know the Cummings is the biggest bang for the buck, but the engine is in a POS truck that can't handle the motor, exp: trans, and front end components such as track bar problems and misalliance crap.

Now if you take a PSD and drop a Cummings in it with a good burly built trans you have the ultimate truck and it will lay down a 10 second run and still can be used for towing and DD duty's with an adjustable program for the engine it's self.

The PSD is a tank in weight but is nice to have that with a heavy load towed to keep the stability at freeway speeds of 70 mph.

I personally, if I buy another diesel, will be dropping a Cummings in a PSD, with a built auto with some "smoking" goodies.

Well before i buy the truck it is going to the shop.I test drove it yesterday and the water in fuel light came on and the tranny grinds in 2 gear.Im kinda thinking that i might just buy a 98-99 vortec chevy instead.

Find another one, dont be impatient, its the worst thing you can do... I speak from expierence. I bought a 97 powerstroke a little over a year ago, and the thing was nothing but problems since i had it. I was lucky enough to trade it in 5 months ago and only lose 2k on the deal.

Keep your eye on autotrader.com and dealerships, you'll find something thats a better deal and worth the wait.

Go find another one.

 

[Bunk1]

Go find another one.

Go find a cummins.

 

[Dude]

Brian, what is your limit on $$$$$$$$$ ???

I can do some snooping around for ya. I know I can find a rig way better than the 96 for about the 12 to 15k range for sure.

Because Dodges are over priced and some of us really know that. :haha: :haha:

And the hype is over rated so the sheeple do fallow a false lead.

sorry, the truth does sting a little. :haha: :clappy:

I love it how guys that have had a ford or currently own a ford will be the first to say they would put a cummins in there truck if they could, but they will never admit to wanting a dodge or telling someone to not buy a ford:haha:

I don't care what brand I drive, as long as it works as advertised. And those vehicles don't come in a "truck" form of vehicle.

Basically they are all junk if you think about it. :haha:

I'm not brand loyal and admit that the Cummins is a good motor but I also think that my Powerstroke is a good motor in a better truck than the average Dodge.

 

[Not Jobless]

I've never understood and still don't understand why people say that the Cummins is a great motor but the dodge is a piece of ****?

Cummins + NV5600 + Dana 80 = Better drivetrain than anything on the market.

My truck is just over 6 years old with 240k on it, sure parts are starting to go bad and need replacing but that's just normal for anything with mileage.

I agree that the Chevy and the Fords have a little more plush interior...but but :wtf:
