they have had a metric **** ton of problems with the 6.7 . we have had at least 6 in the last month all needing motors

What kind of problems have they had? I thought it was essentially the same engine as the 5.9 with a larger bore.

having alot of stuff go bad in the fuel system . injectors staying open , 3 of the ones this month have broke # 1 rod and sent it out of the side of the block . 1 needed all six injectors at 6000 miles and dodge would not warrenty it because it was a 3500 and had it reg. as a commercial tow rig ... most of the stufff has been in he top end .

That is a NICE truck. If I had not already bought my money hole Power Wagon, I would have jumped on several trucks, yours being one of them.

Oneal needs to get on the horn with Chrysler and get them to start making a 5500 Mega Cab with at least 84" C-A.

Dang, thanks Steven! Its not a mega cab, but they are certainly bigger than the quad cabs. :woot:

At 6'3", I cant ride for long in the back of mine if another tall person is sitting in front of me.

The 6.7 is tolerable as long as you never let the motor idle / drive in town . or hell stop period while it is running :wtflol:
