Keep the Dodge and fix it up, big issue on the transmission is the convertor is to loose and heats up the oil, also line pressure is a little low.
This can be fixed with a good billet torque convertor and shift kit for the valve body, then the trans will hold up nearly as well as the Cummins in front of it.
I've got a F-450 that had the 6.0 explode at 95,000 miles, it now has a 12 valve Cummins and will most likely be the last work truck I ever buy.
Should I have to purchase a new pickup it will have a gas engine, the added cost of the diesel engine and trans plus the high maintenance cost of new diesels won't pay out for me and I don't want to have that close of a relationship with my dealer.
Friend has a 12 Dodge 6.7 Cummins, it has a coolant leak the dealer can't find, only gets 16 mpg highway empty and 6-10 towing.
Reading some of the diesel forums I wouldn't want the nightmares some of the 14 - newer guys are having.
