Man there is so much info between all the years available....

12v are the most simple design... all mechanical

24v are good but you need to watch out for the 53block problems and injection pumps that haven't had sufficient fuel to them.

Common rail 24v are the good also... some injector issues.. most likely dependant upon fuel quality and filtration history.

Don't know anything about the 6.7's..

Keep reading and do some searches... narrow it down to a year you're looking at so we can get more specific.
