I agree. I was going to go with the 6.7, but knew the 5.9 was probably the best motor. I have been very happy with my truck, and havent had any problems. I am getting about 16mpg with mosty highway driving. I am hoping to go from 3.73 gears to 4.10's, because of the lift and 37's. This should help my mileage get back to around 18mpg. Just depends on if you wanna wait till the problems get sorted out, or go with the 5.9 where most of the problems were sorted out years ago.
