Im in the market for buying my first car and iIwant to get a diesel truck. Im gonna be honest, I have no idea what to get or what to expect. Im 17 and ive always loved diesel trucks and have been around them since I was little. Im debating different performance diesel colleges such as Wyotec and NADC so i can learn alot about them and start a career with the beasts. I really do have a passion for the smell of burning diesel, I would just be and invalid participant in a discussion of the engines. I am very mechanically inclined and know quite a bit about gas engines but diesel is completely different, seriously, 2 stroke diesel engines? WTF! Everybody out there has their opinions on which truck is better and that dmax sucks, cummins should go out of business and powerstroke is pathetic. I want a professional opinion on which truck I should be looking into. No side taking because you have one of them. I need a truck that can pull a big toy hauler as I have toys and I also want something I can drive to a truck pull, compete and outperform, and then drive the same truck back home. Something very reliable. I know that all 4 brands make a solid truck, but which one is the best. I watch a lot of videos and read alot of reviews and drive my frinds trucks. All have high performing dmax cummins and powerstrokes. And I like all three and have come to a conclusion that I cant tell a damn bit of difference in any of them except the cummins has a bit more grunt. So my question is. WHAT DO I DO!? Im lost. Should I be looking at an older one to start and gert into like between 1998 and 2005 or go ahead and get a newer truck. God I have alot to learn. I know I dont have the right to call myself a coal roller yet but soon i will. Thanks for any advice or suggestions and professional opinions.

 

hears one or two. they have 2 cycle gas engins also. and if you want to roal coal then rool out of here. Anyways on to info. they all have issues. just depends on what issues you want to deal with.

 

Yeah i know about 2 stroke gas. I just never ever thought diesel could burn in 2 cycles. And i understand they all have some issues as everything does, not to be snobby or picky, i just want the best money can buy.

 

What does all the talk about coal mean?

Or coal rollin? what does that mean? Is that a reference to the kids that like to blow black smoke?

 

Yes. Somewhere someone decided it was "cool" to blow black smoke everywhere. Then they get on here and we educate them I prefer to make tire smoke

 

if u cant tell smoke is bad and ppl hate it. you can do all of what you want with any of the 3 trucks just depends on which YOU like best drive them all and pick one. if you treat a truck right it will work. search the forums and do research. personally i have a 12v cummins i have friends with powerstokes and dmaxs. all great trucks just gotta address the issues and take care of them. personally i dont think any highschooler should have a diesel truck because they all want to jack it up and "roll coal" and race and cause a bad rep for the rest of us. my $0.02

 

These threads just give me a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach. I mean come on guys, everytime someone even mentions smoke, is it really necessary for 10 different guys to chew him out? Because I know not all of your trucks are tuned 100% clean.
