Apparently. All the 6.7 was blue rec. 07 and up. 09 they locked out the ecu (no programmers) Just the badge blue tec floated in n out. They all are sensor emissions nightmares
Shame. The 6 speed auto has good reviews
absolute shame.
5.9 great motor, the 4 speed. CRAP.
6.7 not good motor, the 6 speed great.
why the hell cant any ONE manufacture get it all right in one shot?!
Motorrad:
Starting to look heavy at the 06 ish. Duramax. seems they fixed all the injection issues by 04. Not straight axle like I wanted. But. May give thet up....

I can confirm how bitching the 6 speed in the dodge is......great tranny, sucky motor. I ended up hauling the company trailer with a 2012 duramax dually......good power, good tranny.....my only dislike about the duramax is that it sounds and feels like a gas motor.....To me the chevy trucks have always felt very "car like".....As far as the fords go.....
Love all the engines from 7.3l and earlier but hated the automatic trannys......I wish the 6.0l never existed but the 5 speed automatic was pretty good.....the 6.4l that they came out with had good power but was very fuel thirsty........this new 6.7l is super powerful and the tranny is awesome....but they are expensive and you have a complicated nightmare under the hood.
By the way, every truck I am speaking of I have driven and towed with......I am not going off of "tribal" knowledge, or "I heard from a buddy" crap.....

The 6.7 is pretty well the same as the 5.9 commonrail. Siamese bore & longer stroke really only dif. I can see what your saying about emissions though. The d-max has an awful lot of external balance weight after mid 05. 04-very early 05 is okay but after that they have a crank breaking & piston splitting rep that is deserved over 650 hp anyway.

Why the hell would you need or want to bump one up to 650hp.
