Re: 08' GM dually
Did anyone else watch the LSU-ND game last night? Lots of Nissan truck commercials...anybody see a resemblance between the Nissan bumper panels and the Chevy HD bumper panels?
Also, for those interested in a little light reading:
http://media.gm.com/us/powertrain/en...07/07truck.htm
Scroll to the bottom where the truck engines are. To the right of the engines you'll have links for spec sheets (SS, Excel spreadsheet) and What's New (WN, Word doc). Then to the right of the trans you can find some interesting info as far as HP/Tq capacities, and MAX towing and GCVW numbers too.
Thanks,
Michael

This is also coming from a lifetime GM man that is still on his first Ford.

Re: 08' GM dually
I have to admit that I know very little about diesel engines only what I see here and a few other sites. I have recently been visiting some dealers looking for a used truck. I had a Ford salesman tell me to stay away from the 6.0 because of problems with them. I was just reading a post on here about someone losing a 7.3 so I guess it can just happen but I just do not want to run into a lot of problems.
I use to have a 04 Chevy with the 8.1 gas/Allison and liked the power it had but only had it about a year so I did not get into any reliability issues. I would also consider a Ford with the V10 gas.
