did the 6.7 take its place? I have been out talking to dealers all week and they are saying the 5.9 is no more.. Are they just trying to get me to buy a 6.7? cus i would much rather have the 5.9.

just want to make sure they are still going to make it..

You might get lucky if you look around and find a new '07 with the 5.9 in it still...but he is right, the 6.7 has replaced the 5.9...

Well you better get one while you have the chance...they're getting harder to find and the dealerships are upping their prices because they know one of the best motors EVER is being discontinued.

Yup! no more 5.9 for the Dodge. That's why I had a dealer find me an 07 w/ the 5.9.
