Why would you not drive a Cummins?
A.Lack of knowledge
B. Stupidty
C. Just fell off a turnip truck
D. My head is stuck in dark place and I can not see.(Help me!)

 

I got interested in diesel trucks because of my interest in making biodiesel and the need to pull our boats and other various trailers around. After the first truck had a fuel system that was a never ending nightmare, I decided that I wanted the most reliable engine I could get and that lead me to the 12V cummins.

 

I drive mine because its an inline and it will run forever, and the ability to pull, tow hall, and to make incredible power for alot less money than gas, and still get mpg and a everyday driver. I am not much of a v8 man

INLINE 6 ALL THE WAY

 

Because I like the sound!

 

I wanted to mod it. I didn't need it and still don't. When this dies or I get bored with it I'll probably get the M3 I wanted.

A few examples
Hate the truck it comes in.

Costs more to own than a gasser.
i.e. higher priced fuel, higher priced oil changes, heavier so you need higher priced tires. Bad past experiences with previous cummins versions (vp44, lift pumps, injectors)

 

So I could test an Adrenaline

 

Because work pays me to.

 

cause I wanna go fast, and sound cool.

 

I drive a Dodge that is powered by a Cummins because Cummins makes the best engine big or small in my opinion.

 

towing power and towing mileage

 

ok, what about the 7.3L Powerstroke. It is a medium duty engine also. It IS a T444E.



Not to put YOU on the spot, but I'm tired of this excuse, it isn't true by definition.


just wondering.

 

Because, well, what else is there? OK, there is a Dmax, but I cannot afford one of those!

 

Actuall the 6.6 Duramax 7.3 and 6.0 powerstroke are all classified as light duty engines.

I drive a Cummins because the voices in my head tell me too.

 

Im quite sure the 7.3L is a medium duty engine, but not about the others. Actually the 7.3L is in quite a few med. duties.

because my dad bought one for himself in 2000 and as soon as i got my liscence i took it for a drive and i was like this thing is awesome, and he has towed a lot of crap with his, and its been super reliable for him,and it got awesome fuel economy , so when i turned 19 i decided i wanted to get my own cummins and for pulling my mower nothing gas that could pull it would get nearly what i get pulling my commercial mower, even havin 4.10's and 285's a gas job would probably get less than 10mpg towing it.
