It may seem that the cummins is more expensive but in a lot of other ways it is just as expensive to operate as any diesel. Iv had ford diesels and now have a cummins because of fords 6.0. The dodge is not an impressive truck to me but the cummins is a really good engine. Ask yourself why so many big trucks and heavy equipment use a cummins and not a gm or navistar. Truthfully Ive found the cummins parts to the same or less priced. I can get a whole lot of parts the same or cheaper than ford. My oil changes are cheaper because you use a gallon less oil than a navistar. I can get a factory bosh injector pump for 1500 bucks from cummins which I paid 2000 for injector pump on our ford service truck last year. Look at replacment of injectors. 8 on a navistar versus 6 on a cummins. Cummins trucks are easier to work on imo. Not knocking fords at all. Ive had alot of ford diesels over the years still have a few in the fleet but I wouldnt sell yourself short and not even consider a cummins. Ill admit the dodge is no where near the truck a ford is but I would rule a cummins out.
