I don't think so, I just bought an '08 and am getting ready to trade for an '05. Less EPA garbage to deal with, break and pollute the inside of the engine. Easy fuel filter changes too.

I can't wait.

I really like the 6 speed auto and built in exhaust brake on my '08, but the '05 has a 6 speed too :peelout

5.9 won't let you down. 6.7 is a toss-up.

I'd wait and get a used 6.7 that is out of warranty in a few years. I love my 5.9 but am curious what a 6.7 can do stripped of the greenie tree hugger parts. I'm not going to pay top dollar for one and immediately void the warranty especially on an unproven engine/tranny.
