Cummins vs Duramax vs Power Stroke

[@randyhelton7277]

So basically government stupid emissions ruined them all 😂

[@Bluecedor]

Ya, how stupid…wanting a better environment, cleaner air, fewer dead people, wiping out diesel stench, and less cancer. Damn those regulations…

The new l5p is a great engine to upgrade and not worry as-long as it gets a viscous damper- gale banks! The diesel man!

[@TheRamGuy]

Actually the 6.9 IDI is the real predecessor to the powerstroke

[@destin-diesel.9495]

Kinda. It was before the 7.3 IDI. Both idi engines were great! But very very gutless.

Duramax 👌

Cummins is the only reliable engine on the market it is been out longer than duramax and power stroke

[@chriskuntz1763]

5th gen not so much

[@MrNismopro]

All of them are unreliable. Cummins is still most reliable. Inline six makes it naturally smoother without balancers. Roller lifters are fine, people need to stop using 15w40. I think all of them can be reliable if they’re deleted. All three are great engines. Believe it or not, the Nissan/Cummins 5.0 is even reliable once you’ve removed all of the crap on it. That engine just needs oil changes every 5000 miles.

[@Bigtuna-jh9uq]

Cummins is having many problems. But yes the old ones were built anvils

Own a 2022 ram 3500 and I've put 185K miles on it, only major repair I've done to it was the transmission, total cost $3800 other than that a few sensors here and there.

What about the 3L in-line 6 Duramax. Starting to see these everywhere. One in my driveway.

[@mikewarren1401]

Duramax is outselling powerstroke and Cummins combined!

[@ArrowGearhead]

Lot of people are coming to love Duramax these days

[@Timfield.42]

Lb7 didn't have a vgt turbo, that got introduced in the lly

[@Anonymous..VQ3.5Lg35]

Lly has the biggest factory turbo to date!

[@Anonymous..VQ3.5Lg35]

Lb7 is the loudest truck straight piped right up with cummins!

[@6.7Pstroke]

They are all really really nice and reliable! The 6.7 powerstroke is the best. They all make tons of power but the ford is the best. Most expensive though. Justifiable after driving them all.

[@rickkeller105]

Unfortunately the new Cummins 2019 and up has had issues with the hydraulic lifters. Mine went at 39k. Hopefully they get it sorted out as otherwise is an amazing engine. The exhaust brake sounds incredible and it just chugs along towing heavy loads. Definitely not the quickest of the bunch though.

[@Bluecedor]

@@rickkeller105 Do you have the standard output or the HO? Wondering if the issue affects all Cummins 6.7s or only certain configs.

[@rickkeller105]

@ standard output. Have heard the lifters have been redesigned a few times now but is only hearsay from others so nothing conclusive.

[@CT9905.]

2005 LLY 300K and counting, the Duramax was designed and built by Isuzu in Japan 🇯🇵!

[@kevinjones3251]

Powerstroke has the HO 500/1200 version.

Duramax all the way and they last forever with little to no problems and they can take a beating

can chevy actually tow 30000 pounds or are the lagging behind like normal?

[@brandedmcgowan9414]

Since the T1 platform in 2020 arrived yes. Even the previous generation can pull that weight but GM holding back it's potential and focused on reliably and safety instead of chasing class leading numbers like Ford.

[@carmelomolina8628]

Powerstroke and Cummins are the best out there. I like better Powerstroke yes and they can last forever with an excellent maintenance. Maintenance is key to all engines. Most of the problem with this engines Powerstroke and Cummins are the owners with maintenance.

[@chriskuntz1763]

Amazing how people really don’t know how problematic the newer diesels are

[@ArrowGearhead]

Agree!

[@carmelomolina8628]

I work with diesel engines everyday I have to go to training to keep with all the improvements some are really good and some are bad. At the end 90% of the problems I encountered is customer faults.

[@maltesoennichsen2827]

In Germany a ”BigDiesel“ is a 3.0 Bmw or Audi 6 cylinder😅😂

Or a Q7 V12 tdi / touareg V10 tdi

[@Bluecedor]

@@nono2.087 Those won’t ever be around again, though. VW took the diesel V10 and replaced it with a V6. I think the V10 buyers quickly found out that paying four figures for seemingly every service item north of an oil change wasn’t fun.

Cummins

[@JasonGarber-n9y]

That engine u showed for the ford was not a powerstroke , it was a 7.3 liter I D I ENGINE that they put a turbo , the power stroke was a direct injection v8 with a Garrett turbo and heui that used high pressure engine oil to fire the injectors. I know this because i owned every ford diesel from the 6.9 idi 7.3 idi then the 7.3 idi with the turbo and it only says turbo diesel under the f250/f350 badge , and then i had a couple 1997 powerstrokes, about 3 2000 7.3 powerstrokes were all great worktruck engines that never died on me , and are prob out there right now doin something cool. The 86 6.9 had 689k when i sold it and all the other 7.3s i had were all above 200k with some over 400k i dont like any of the crap they are putting on these new diesels, they could be tuned to burn way cleaner without all that junk

[@geraldblacher6318]

it hurts my soul to see a nissan diesel….. i doing know why but it makes me cringe😂

[@wyattKing-w1z]

Duramax all the way and the only reason why power strokes are the top selling vehicle and they have been it’s all because they’re cheaper for companies to buy and if I go to every company that I have ever worked for and I have own companies too I figured out that Ford sucks ballsand Cummins and Dodgers are better and Duramax’s last longer than both of them

[@copeyy42]

It goes Cummins, powerstroke, duramax. Duramax is dogshit, Cummins and powerstroke is just person preference. Powerstrokes have a nicer/cleaner interior, Cummins 100% for hauling but a powerstroke will do almost the same exact as a Cummins. Powerstrokes will last longer but Cummins will give u a run for ur buck for how nice they haul.

[@Bigtuna-jh9uq]

You have no clue. Powerstroke had about a decade worth of bad years between the 6.0, 6.4, and early 6.7’s. It’s made in Mexico Cummins had its problems too. VP44, KDP, and the casted blocks from Brazil that crack. Duramax has had less problems between the 3 and is the only one made in the USA.

[@alexlindekugel8727]

@@Bigtuna-jh9uq all suck with the current emissions. but ive had to replace more fuel injectors in Duramax's than any other. most the Cummins i see are for maintince not major repairs. an the tickers are usally over 300k. but like i said they all suck with the current emissions. shop often gets all 3 in with emissions related problems. but i dont work on thoes. but cummins is far more popular by me.
