There's only one engine that cost a manufacturer $1 Billion in warranty, (yes that's billion), the 6.0. Yes, there are good ones. there are/were a lot of bad ones. Many will say they were "chipped" and modified so that's why they failed. I say not true. I had an 04 with the 03 engine. After several issues We traded it in 06 at a substantial loss for a new 06 Cummins Dodge and have smiled ever since. I frequent the RVnet forum frequently as I tow a 5th wheel.

Personally I hope mine went to the crusher.
