Cummins Vs. 6.5
Alright i want either a 6.5 Turbo Diesel or a 1995-1999 12v Dodge cummins, which truck stock would get better fuel mileage. Thanks, they woudl be ext. cab short bed too
|
cummins hands down. longer lasting, great fuel mileage if ur easy with ur right foot. plus wayyy more in the way of aftermarket if u ever wanna get some more out of it. just watch the auto trans in the dodge. they're weak. i burned thru 3 on a stock engine before i switched to the 5 speed
|
Please dont buy a 6.5 They are very weak motors just in stock form. Cummins all the way on this specific question.
|
I had a 95 6.5 before I bought my 97 5.9. My 6.5 turned itself into a V10, without any mods. Never beat on it. If you want a engine that will last, buy the Cummins. Best engine ever put in a pick-up. :c:
|
what kind of mpgs are some of you getting out of the cummins and how much would it cost me to put in a manual trans?also cummins 95, wat lift you got on that? thanks
|
id choose the cummins by a country mile.my 95 12valve stock was getting 18mpgs
|
My 94 5 speed truck, on a 486 mile tank my gps said I averaged 32 mph and I got 15. On a 530 mile trip non-stop trip averaging 70-75 by my gps i get 16. Both my styles of driving kill fuel mileage and on top of everthing else I have a POORLY tuned afc, and 5x.014's.
|
How much does it cost to put a manual tranny into a auto tranny truck lol?
|
Depends on a huge variety of things. I cant answer that but you have the option of doing it yourself, having someone do it, cost of parts, etc. Lots of variables
|
well, having someone else do it for sure im not very good with motors and stuff like that lol and the cheapest way in parts probably.
