I just filled out the JD Power Survey...........3500 miles and no problems except my backing skills. Put a small dent in the bumper backing into a space and I hit a concrete light pole.

Nice truck.

I drove one and it did great....... Got me thinking that's for sure.... One thing is for sure and that is the longer you wait the better they will have the 6.7 fined tuned into a well oiled sewing machine....

I have put over 2700 miles on my 08 in 16 days (sat for 2 days)and not a single prob or light (knock on wood) and I love it. I have a pretty hot 12 valve and this pulls almost as good but is a lot quieter and I really like the Exhaust brake and tow/haul mode. It will almost bring you to a stop with our 7400 lbs trailer with out hitting the brake peddle.

I have an 07.5 and have had minor problems at first (flashes) but for the last 18000 miles the truck has ran great. I was skeptical about the new 6spd auto but it has turned out to be awesome and have had no problems at all. Overall, I wouldn't think twice about getting a 6.7L engine and think that they are good engines.
