This is my 5th Dodge truck, and 2nd diesel. The driveablity of this truck is fantastic, power is awesome, comfort is great for a HD truck. Haven't towed too much with it yet, but it does well there with plenty of power. The Major Letdown of this truck is the fuel economy. I get 10 around town and 13 on the highway at 75 MPH. And this is with the 3.73 gears. Other 6.7 owners I know have had the same experience.

I bought the new 6.7 liter Cummins. What a piece of junk. My truck has not run properly since I purchased it. I have had it in 6 times because of 02 sensors sooting, turbo charger sooting, turbo replacement, 02 sensor replacement, replacement of map sensor, replacement of barometer sensor and now to top it off my truck smokes like a chimney at random. Do not buy the new Cummins 6.7! Chrysler deserves to go bankrupt and out of business permanently!

I just took delivery on a 2008 SLT 4X4 2500 with auto and 6.7L Diesel. What a truck! This vehicle handles like a 1/2 ton but the ride is a bit tighter. I went from a 2002 Toyota Tundra TRD 2WD access cab. I like the quad cab door arrangement as I always felt that the suicide style doors of the rear Tundra were worthless in parking lot when your right next to another car. This Dodge actually turns better (turning radius) than the Tundra but parking is still a slight challenge. The long bed or Mega cab with the longer wheel base would be much worse. The engine has power to spare and mileage on freeway at 65 is 21 - 22mpg with 100 miles on car...around town is not so good...12 - 15 mpg.
