March 28, 201312 yr i hate the newer chevys.. but my boss loves them.. well he bought a newer wrecker, and today i drove it.. its an 2010 3500HD with the 6.7? some shit, anyway.. that fucker has tons of power i was shocked,
March 30, 201312 yr Both Chevy and Ford power plants are nuts. The diesels of today are just crushers. I'm interested to see if the durability will be there like the older less tuned up engines or if they will tear themselves apart like some of the over tuned gasser engines.
March 30, 201312 yr With the way they are built, they more than likely last. VW had a stock 1.9TDI with 150 Hp. That's close to 75 Hp / Liter and they last. It's not exactly apples to apples comparison but for a 6.7 that would mean 500 Hp stock. Mercedes now has a 2.2 liter diesel with 204 Hp. Twin turbo even. There's no comparison between the tech used now and that used 10 years ago.
