Try the Duramax, Cummins is the only good thing about Dodge. Until they get Allison to make transmissions for them, they will continue to have problems.
My brother in law just lost the tranny at 80,000 on his. It sounds like Allison is going to build for Ford now, but Dymler/Benz is too proud to ask a British company for help.

I'll never own a diesel with 100K overhaul cycle (and aluminum heads on a iron block).... that's just a waste of money. Seriously, why spend the xtra 6k on a small duty diesel when you can have a medium duty one that doesn't need an overhaul until 300k???
The Allison is not all that. It has it's fare share of documented issues as well.
my advice.. lay off the marketing gimmicks.
