If you can stand the poor cab, the Cummins will surprise you. I"ve had nothing but Fords till this last one. got a used 2001" 3500 clubcab dually high hp, 6sp cummins with 57k on the clock. Its great,, the rest is disappointing but its a farm truck not my wife, so I dont have to like it,, it pulls 32,000lbs like no tomorrow.. My 36" goose neck with two 12k tractors or full of round bales, make no difference. Just hope I never get stopped and weighed.. Didnt want to gamble on the Duramax or the 6.0 Ford as both didnt have a track record at the time I needed the truck. kid got behind and the bank put it at the tractor auction. bought it along with a 7710 and 7700. Dont regret it one minute. Oh yeah.. there"s something on the hood that begins with a d. But the Cummins is a great truck. Get 19 to 21mpg empty 17mpg with the 16" tandom, 13mpg with a medium (13,000lbs) load on the gooseneck where I"m still able to run in 6th. 9mpg when I have to run in 5th at 68 to 70 miles per hour with it overloaded. If you want to love a truck, dont get this one, If you what to pull everything you need to, then its a clear winner.
