Ive got several buddies working in the test cell at Cummins here locally, not a single one will spill what cummins has up its sleeve. but im suspecting, just going off of cummin's history of being the leader in power and durability, that itll be a big monster number when it is finally released. Ive been seeing a ton of their test trucks running around town so im sure itll be released soon

Whats worng with the auto in the 07-11 dodge?? Its not like a 48RE

I expect to see a 400+ hp cummins with urea soon. (Thats is just my opinion)

How do you figure? The 6.7 Cummins isnt gettin much better mileage than the other two diesels on the market. I dont know if they've improved but my uncle has an 08 2500 6.7 and he has got a BEST of 16.5 on the highway, and throw a motorcycle trailer on back and it drops down to 12-13. Those are highway figures, a far cry from what a diesels used to get mpg wise.

Better tell your dad to shop around, I've found several places where its about $3-7/gal and washer fluid is about $3-5 a gallon

I've also read that it will cost around $0.003-0.007/mile to run DEF!!! WHOOOAAAA!!!! better hold onto your pocketbook your gona go broke!!!!!!

I'm sorry dude but Im still not following you

The 6.7 has a DPF and an EGR system (probably urea before too long too) just like the LMM or LML Dmax or 6.4 or 6.7 Powerstroke. And on the 6.7 Cummins, there are alot of people that shell out the money to do DPF and EGR deletes. So what are you trying to say?
