Anyone else running a 24v 5.9 Cummins? Is the mileage too much?
Heck that cummins is not even broke in yet grin The 5.9 24v is a very fine diesel engine.Buy it if the price is right.I had a 2004 dodge 2500 5.9 cummins with the auto tranny ran it to about 90,000 miles. Replaced some front end parts for around $600 bucks.The only problem I had after 8 years of ownership.I now drive a 2016 Ram 2500 with the 6.4 hemi as I no longer need a diesel. wink
