Thanks Chris. Yep, it's a nice upgrade.

There's actually a very long ugly story as to why I got rid of the 2500 Hemi.

is a 7.3 with 70,000 miles for 24,000 too expensive with no warrenty?

With the Ford 6.0 get one with warranty. The Injectors and the Harness goes quite a bit. I work for a towing company and it's pretty much a constant with that engine. They are a little cold blooded more so that even others. Duramax is good but pricey. I love the cummings engine but the dodge body just doesn't seem to hold up out here. My favorite big truck is an 2002 Dodge 2500. Just a lot of fun to drive!

The 2007's came with either engine (5.9 or 6.7). The earlier 2007 year models were being built as 5.9's, then later during the model year they switched to the 6.7's. At least, that's how the SoCal inventory was being populated.

My '07 3500 has the 5.9L CTD. I could have gotten the 6.7, both were available when I got mine (Sept '07).

The dealership I got mine at had ~50 CTD's on the lot at the time. Some 2500's, some 3500's, some 5.9's some 6.7's. They had '08's on the lot too, but all of those had the 6.7.

how are the gmc's with the 6.6? a new jersey dealership has a 2003 gmc 2500 with the 6.6 duramax for around 20,000 with 80,000 miles. do these last awhile?

i also found a 00 f250 powerstoke for around 16500 with 88,000 miles.
