Bottom line from my experience every motor has their upside and downside. I'm a chevy guy all the way but they have their weakness too, this is purely talking diesel, oh no I might have started another war here lol...i wish dodge ford and chevy would come together and build the "ultimate machine". Never gonna happen though.
My reason for being a chevy fan is not because my grandpa or dad owned one (I was born and raised in Europe not many America cars driving around) rather just the lines and looks of the chevrolet cars/trucks that drew me towards the bow tie.
Oh please sweet baby cheesus let chevy dodge and ford come together, share their wealth of knowledge and create the "ultimate American machine"
