Duramax Comparison

I just noticed this and thought it was interesting. Looks like they haven't updated their chart in a while.

Lightbulb Time for action!.........

Looks like it's time to start a "MASS EMAIL CAMPAIGN" to inform them of the NEW numbers!

Have you seen the new commercial showing a PS out drag racing a DM while pulling a trailer?

ok first off the T444 was 444ci the latest Powerstroke before the 6.0L PSD and that came with 265 no matter what auto or stick. 505 for auto and 525 for stick. Duramax needs to STOP making them look better because their NOT better than any other Diesel e.i. PSD or Cummins. Just my $0.02.

Well, duh! We CAN'T update our website info, because then it would show us to be DEAD LAST.

Funny, also, that they list the aluminum head like it is a selling point.

Although Isuzu makes lots of diesel engines, that kind of scared me.

I don't care if it weighs something like 1900 pounds, I likes me iron cummins.

I actually saw a Dodge truck commercial that showed a picture of the CTD logo and said it was available with the "new" Cummins Diesel.
