I agree with most of the pro diesel guys keep the old one 03 Duramax, has a lot of life left as long as the rest of the truck is still holding up. I owned an 03 and still have an 07 classic with 130000 still as strong if not stronger than new. thought the 03 was great but got wrecked and replaced it with near identical 07 never regretted it. This truck was even better.
No one has mentioned one of the reasons for the success of these Duramax's. The engines work real well but without the Allison behind it I believe they would not have had as much success. Very smooth power transition and torque delivery. I've plowed a lot of snow and carried many loads with mine and very pleased how easily the power gets to the ground. I had many other trucks either personal and company vehicles including a 2012 6L pretty much identical to my 07.

I have enjoyed that low end torque and don't have to beat the truck for the performance.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
