  • just buy the 5.9 and get it over with fgts

  • @cam2724 plus g on ford and look at there mpg rating betwenn the new gas engine and the diesel they have right now?(6.4 i think)...the gas is better in fuel economy than the diesel

  • @cam2724 depends your need ....the v-10 ford or dodge is as strong if not more then there available diesel..... the only and real good thing with diesel is there low rpm torque....but now they have gasser who are at max peak torque in the 1500 rpm range....so i gets it goes down to what you want...my point is small truck dont need diesel it should be keep for big rig, where the fuel economy really makes a difference, just my 2 cents

  • @CedrikTheManiac00 On a volume basis this is true. When you compare the same volume of exhaust produced then there is much more Co2 produced by the diesel. The thing is, a diesel is SO much more efficient that you don't produce near the volume of exhaust that a gasser does.

    You can lean out a diesel and still maintain power where as it is the opposite with a gasser. For Towing and Working you can not beat a diesel.

  • New Dodge truck watch my video of the Dodge 6.7L diesel. Just consider this because Dodge is not trying to help me out. help

  • the hemi has no low end torque

  • @MPLSTORM you are right when you say that and soon the heavy duty rams should get the new 6.4 hemi.

  • @JrNba32 diesel is not bettr for environment, even if diesel burn less gas, they emit way more co2 than gas engine.....check it out before cmmenting back

  • I love my Cummins but the HEMIs are great engines, the best gassers you can buy.
