Has any one drivin one yet? if so how is it?

the dealer here in town hasnt had one yet.

I'm not sure why no one has really replied to this post, but over on TDR (maybe even DTR) there's at least one guy I know of that has driven one with the auto. He goes by Luke S. He's a dealer and if I remember his post right, he said the truck (the 350hp motor) will smoke the tires in the first four gears.

wow! yeh i was wondering why noone has posted! surely someone on this site has driven one, or knows someone who has. i have yet to see one at my dealer. just the cab and chassis version. i dont want to drive one of those, cuz its very different with a bed and without.

I'm waiting delivery of my 3/4T Laramie. I should have it this month. I'll let you know.

Hey Bourdon,

Have you gotten anymore info? Here's what's being said over on TDR:

very nice. our dealer still hasnt got one! im goin to test drive one when one gets here! i cant wait! i like the fact that at 73 mph it was turnin 1700. thats nice! that will help the fuel mileage!

I don't remember where I saw it, but someone posted that he was seein' the same fuel mileage as the 5.9.

I will be looking at getting a 6.7 4x with training wheels next year.

zippy has driven one... look in general towrig discussion

he drove one w/ a manual trans so i haven't heard anything about the new auto. he said the power was good, the stock exhaust brake was sweet and it sounded quieter and deeper than the previous gen.

Drive one, I bought one, I love it. With the VGT there is so much low end power.

really? well thats good to know. i need to go test drive one. i think my dealer finally has one.

Thinking about getting rid of my 96 Chevy. I drove the 6.7 in an 07 2500, loved the power, not sure about the transmission though, It had the 6 sp auto , but I would rather have the manual. dealer can't find one though. :D

i'm new to diesels and i am considering getting a new 6.7 with 6 speed auto, would really appreciate some feedback as far as fuel economy goes with the 6.7. I read a test in a magazine and they only got 12 or 13, but that vehicle was a cab and chasis not yet broke in. :stir:

I'm getting 14.5 to 14.7 litres/100km which I think is about 15 or 16 mpg. The truck's definitely not broke in yet only 2100km. That's about 20% better than my 92 Ford (7.3 IDI). Love the truck. The power is awesome.waytogo

man the gears must me around the 3.00 because with my 6th gear allison (3.42) final I am around 2k @ 73


as for smoking them thru 4th I do not think so. my 350/650 LBZ with the predator on 85 will not smoke them thru 3rd even with my pizza cutters on

i drove one...traded my 5.9 for it the same day ;)
