Question Need some advice..

I am going to go look at a 2007 Cummins Dodge 2500 with about 47k miles they are asking 28k for the truck. I was curious if anyone knew of anything that is a common issue and/or anything that I should be worried about? Also is there anything I should be looking or listening for when test driving other then the typical is it smoking how does it shift? Thank you

5.9 or 6.7? The 07 6.7 had many issues that seem to have been fixed in the later models. However the 6 speed auto is a bit of a weak spot. I've had no issues with my 08.

Good luck

My understanding is that the 5.9 is pretty bullet proof. EFI Live tuning just came out for that truck too. Looks extremely promising. Good luck with the purchase.
