I Rather Have A 7.3 Powerstroke I Just A Ford Teen What Do You Think?

JasonInAugusta · 06-15-2006, 09:39 PM

I think the time and effort you spend capitalizing every word would be put to better use if you used a spell check...

..but that's just me.

I'd rather have a VW Golf TDI. ;)

As the g/f always says, " I'd rather be Power Stroked then Ramed"

One of my buddies just put a cummins in his Ford! I guess that says something! All of my work trucks are powerstrokes, i really like the 7.3, one of my 6.0's has had the motor replaced 3 times and only has 23,000 on it! Another has been in the shop 8 times! So far the 6.0 is junk, imo. Finally bought a new dodge w/ a cummins, so far so good! And last, my drill rig is powered by cummins, one engine is a 700hp QSK19 that is the deck engine and it almost has 10,000 hours on w/out a lick of trouble! It drinks about 10 gallons per hour!

xjman · 06-15-2006, 09:50 PM

Where is the cummins guys.. come on vote!

plyr2k · 06-15-2006, 09:50 PM

fix the name. Ive never heard of a cummings. We currently have a 7.3 power stroke with a turbo in our truck. Ide rather have that then a cummins any day of the week.

MGS511 · 06-15-2006, 09:50 PM

every body likes the 7.3 better than the 6.0

MGS511 · 06-15-2006, 09:54 PM

they shoud have never come up with the 6.0.

666 · 06-15-2006, 10:00 PM

I do like the high-end power and fuel economy of the 6.0 though!

rbgerrish · 06-15-2006, 10:06 PM

The Cummins is better.

Your comparing a motor to truck body style. Motor to motor the cummins is far superior. This is how I look at it. I spent $140 on my stock cummins 12v and ended up with 800+ lb/ft torque, how much do you have to do or spend to get the same on a stroke?

rockwerks · 06-15-2006, 10:09 PM

X20........the cummins puts the powerstroke to shame........I see it every day in real life..........the fords struggling up I40 with half the load of a dodge cummins passin em by, the dodge also holds a higher resale value
