I have a 1990 Dodge W350 with the Cummins and a five speed. It has 365,000 miles. The last ten years it has been hooked to my flat bed goose neck trailer most of the time. The truck and trailer weight 14500 empty. With out the trailer I get 18-20 mpg. Loaded and pulling hard I get 10-12 mpg. Now I pull a lot of ten ton plus loads. I have never had any internal work done on the motor. I did have to rebuild the injection pump when they removed the sulfur. It has had two sets of injectors in it. I change the oil every 10,000 miles. I run a Oil scan every other change. It never has shown any problems. The older Cummins don't have the electronics that the newer ones do.

They will outlast the bodies with normal care.
