For what it's worth, I'm at 110,000 on my 04 Dodge. No engine or trans problems. I had the trans built before going to 540 hp.

I just bought an '11 Duramax. I'll never have anything but great things to say about the Cummins but I must say, this Cheby sure is a nice truck! Anyone want my Smarty?

Congratulations! It's always fun picking up and driving a new machine. I'm sure you will love it. GM makes great trucks and you won't have to worry like with the newer Powerstrokes.

Thanks man, it really came down to the Allison and IFS. I know the solid axle is more robust but I really only tow a couple atv's on an aluminum trailer, heck I could get by with a Tacoma!
