I am on here to read and learn just the same as anyone else. I didn't come on here to hate on another brand. I agree the Cummins platform has helped Chrysler out alot. The small block chevy thing maybe but it is not a p.o.s. as was stated in the earlier post and that is what I was refereing to mostly. Ford may sell more than the other two combined so with that said do you know how many govt. agencies buy ford because theyare cheap not becasue they work. Thatis nearly enough there to surrpass one other brand by itself. To make you happy I will cange my sig. to I want a Ford then I can post with out people judging my vehicle instead or what I type.

I agree man. All makes are welcome here, not sure what is up with that guy, but notice he is pretty new here and doesnt realize there are alot of active cummins members here and they are all welcome. I myself am a meber of the cummins forum, and also the duramax forum. nothing wrong with learning about other brands

Sorry I missed this we don't wops like a ford does for say. Right now in most peoples mind it is the Smarty from Madselectronics.com It has the most power with the adjustablilty on the fly being a brand new feature. If you can find one of the older PPE's they have pretty hot programs on them and diablo sprot all make good downloaders. Pressure boxes are also different on CR. Most including myselfthink Ts Preformance Mp-8 is on top due to its infinate adjustability.

It all depends on your needs and where you plan to go with a project.

Nice kill, I have to say some of you guys get offended way too easy, lighten up, who cares!!!!! Cummins, Powerstroke, Duramax............I don't care how fast your truck is, someone will always have a faster truck. If you drive a PSD and beat a Cummins or Duramax then post it and talk about it, but some people are automatically gonna put the off brand down??? It was fine until someone commented on Cummins being a POS I have to disagree, a stock Cummins will hold more power than either Ford or GM diesels.

I am a diesel truck guy so I too belong to all brand forums, I hate when people basically tell you, you don't belong here if you don't agree that the PSD is the best.

Ok I am done ranting.


BTW the GM trucks are the best.....................DURAMAX Baby!!!!!!

Just kidding!!!!!

I have to agree there, its a shame that Dodge hasn't stepped up their game, Cummins is a great engine surronded by a Hyundai.

Oh no you didnt...thems fightin words!! Haha.

I must be by myself; from my personal experience, I wont buy a Ford because all Ive been around, and its alot of them, have fallen apart. The majority of Dodges Ive been around and been rough on have held up far beyond my expectations. And GM trucks are the flimsiest domestic trucks out there. I used to be a bodyman, and those things...lets just say you need to know a good bodyshop, cause you get in a minor fender bender and its gonna be a big bill. The ONLY thing they have is the Duramax. Allison, nope, wouldnt want one. Ill take a 48re over an Allison anyday.

Ill leave Toyota and others out, cause I dont feel like writting a book on junk tonight

I saw i nice big sticker on the tail gate that said cummins powered and figured heck maybe hes looking for a little fun so when the light turned green he left the light kind of fast and left a little smoke so i figured maybe he will race, but i couldn't get over in the other lane because a car was there. Well before i got over he decided to smoke the **** out of me and i was like hell no. so i pulled up next to him and then got in front of him and smoked him back then the race was on. Is all i can say was he lost by a quite a bit actually i figured he had more then what i saw but i dont know. but i do have to give him some props that cummins sounded NICE!.

Great KILL!!

I also had an extra 1000# of fuel, and blown head gaskets. I got the cummins by 4 lengths in the 1/8 mile! Say what you want, I have seen what a similarly modified truck in Dodge form can do.... ...
