I am real happy with my Ford Stroker, way good cooling system on this truck! I had a 01 Dodge 2500 Cummins with a 6 speed and hauled travel trailers for a living with it...until i had the imfamous block failure and a 8 in crack on the side of the block with only 60k on it, ( which left me stranded in Kentucky 2200 miles from home) because cummins had a bad product. It happens to all the makes at some time...just sux bieng one that gets the lemon. oh and cummins would NOT warranty it because it was made in CANADA!!! Yep, i spent a week at the Metropolis IL, Dodge dealer fighting corporate Cummins on the matter..the dealer was on my side, but thier hands were tied. That right there made me buy a different make...

 

i have a 2500 12 valve and pulled a 32' boat 11 wide up through mt shasta in north cal. with the ac on grossed right at 25,000 and never got over 190 ......thats why i drive a cummins!

that same boat i came across grapevine and still never overheated and was able to run about 50-55 going up grapevine......he needs to get a cummins!
