If I stick a aftermarket converter in a truck with 25,000km then I spend $2000 and void my tranny warrenty for that truck. So I might aswell stick a tranny and converter which will run me about $7000cdn otd for a truck that has warrenty for 160,000kms. Why should I have to front that bill in order for my truck to be reliable day in day out? I offered the dealer I would pay the difference of what it would cost to stick an aftermarket setup vs replacing it with stock gear, but they wouldn't go for it.

Just thought I'd remind everyone that this is dodge site, hence the logo at the top of the page.
"Your Dodge Ram and Cummins Turbo Diesel Source"
We should be Brand loyal,
These engines go 1,000,000+ miles, and make big torque and good mpg.
To Defend the Cummins is only in our nature, since it is a legend.
I mean I bought my first cummins, which is the one i have now, with 355,000 miles. I can 100% say I would never by any vechicle in the world, with that many miles, UNLESS it was a Cummins. Fact. It is my daily driver / reliable transportation.

[QUOTE=DR3500;1563674]you are whining about the warranty for the torque converter but you contradict yourself by buying a ford with a lift and larger tires? can you say warranty gone on the ford before you even buy it?[/QU

The Ferd and Brand X engines are "light" duty, as opposed to the Cummins "medium" duty rating. You can't kill a Cummins unless you do something really stupid.
The Isuzu has aluminum heads and the Navistar is a junk pile and always has been. Ever driven a U-Haul? What a pile. Ever driven a 1st Gen 5.9 Cummins? NOT a pile, unless you hate engines that go 1,000,000 miles or more with average care.
We buy trucks for the power plant.

I must have been very tired and a little cranky.
I apologize!
