That's why I added the fudge "(well, not quite if you want to get picky)". It's not as cut and dried, but at the time I typed it, I didn't feel...
I've yet to see a DMax bottom end let go except in the freaked out over-drugged ragged edge trucks, and the guys running them (like Steve(?) at...
LOL, I already knew that, just had to mess with you. Too obvious to pass up... :D
Ok, I guess I can give on those grounds, but I still say the bombed Alli is stronger, though your right, it has not been out there as long nore...
Sure you do, you hear it all the time. Clutches, pressure plates, pilot bearings, synchros, shaft nuts like the infamous NV4500, slave cylinders,...
I thought the '05s were supposed to respond very well to chips much like the DMax. Both have the high pressure common rail now, and with the VVT...
What I really don't understand is why GM isn't learning on the clutch and pressure plate. WTF are they thinking? This has been a very hot issue...
I'm guessing you don't date much? Ohh, now I understand... Never mind, I don't think I want to know... :eek: rotfl rotfl rotfl
Only if you compare the fully bombed RE to a stock Allison. Bomb them both, and the Allison still wins with less money invested. Look at the...
Bobby, if you get a chance, haul a heavy load (or heavy tongue trailer) with both and pay attention as you ride on "dippy" roads. Also try it at...
I've seen 'em too. Clint's prototypes and another guy who is being cagy about it for now. Man, it's a tight fight though. Should be interesting...
I think they are plenty strong and often rated for much more than a ball hitch, though it depends. And they offer a great deal more misalignment...
Good points, I wanted a bench (hate the console) and I do love the climate controls. And of course the tiny back seat was a problem for me too....
I won't argue the live front axle is ultimately stronger and easier to lift and such. But have you towed (relatively) heavy with and IFS 4x4 and...
2WD or 4WD? 4WD would be GM, and IMHO, no point for discussion for reasons I've beaten to a pulp already. 2WD, probably not much difference,...
GM for "best". Nice plush, good ergonims, but could stand improvement. Lots of cheap plastic, but appearance of "good quality" cheap plastic, if...
GM Allison. Nothing more to see here guys, just move along. Steve, might as well close the thread, discussion is done... :stir:
I agree with Brandon, but will add a bit. For entry to intermediate "bombing", GM DMax is the cheapest reliable power for the dollar. Up to...
Yeah, sounds great. Problem is, when I get started, I don't know where I'm going half the time till I get there... :doah: Old age I guess. :o...
Ok, sorry Bobby, I'll try to refrain from poking you any more, at least today... ;) My main goal was always just to contrast your "Dodge/Cummins...
