Default cummins vs. powerstroke
hey guys im new to diesel bombers. I have a 2001 dodge cummins 2500 4x4. its an automatic and has 199k miles. Its completely stock. Im thinking about trading for a 2000 f250 powerstroke 4x4 extended cab short bed. its also an automatic and has 136k miles. the only mods to the powerstroke are exhaust. Any thoughts about trading

If the 5.9 is in good shape then i would personaly stick with it. I personaly think that the 99-03 7.3 is not as good as the obs 7.3 but that just my two cents. That 5.9 is a heck of a good motor in my opnion. Nothing beats an old 1st gen cummins though.
