Is a cummins 6.9 a good motor?
If you mean "Cummins 5.9L" yes it's a good engine. There is no such thing as a Cummins 6.9L. The 5.9L I-6 Cummins is known as the "B-Series". It was named #10 out of 10 as the best-diesel engines ever according to Diesel Power Magazine.

Is a Dodge Cummins a good vehicle?
Cummins is good. Dodge is not. Cummins has always been a good engine. Dodge is lucky to have the contract with Cummins. I have 2 Dodge Cummins (an 1992 and 2006). Both have electrical problems and the transmission in my 2006 isn't great and that's with stock power and only 93,000 miles. The 12-valve Cummins is all mechanical- easy and cheap to get power out of it. The 24-valve Cummins is computerized- have to buy a programmer. The best combination would be a Cummins in a Chevy.

What diesel pickup truck gets the best gas mileage?
Considering that a diesel pickup truck can't use gas I would say that there aren't any diesel trucks that get good gas mileage. If you were wondering which diesel truck gets the highest miles per gallon then I would say you should look at the Dodge Cummins diesel.
What is the most powerful diesel truck?
depends on if your looking for a regular work truck or just wondering who has the most powerful diesel. If your looking for a work truck that is new or used it doesn't matter, the dodge cummins diesel has always been more powerful and longer lasting in terms of the engine and pulling capabilities. The most powerful diesel built for pulling is owned by scheid diesel motorsports, its a cummins diesel that's putting out somewheres around 1600 hp and 2200 ft lbs torque. WRONG!!! Dodge diesels are not good. Dont get me wrong Cummins is by far one of the best diesels ever made but there transmissions cant hang. Chevy has the fastest diesel and overall best diesel in the new diesel market but the 7.3 liter 1994.5 to 2003 ford powerstroke diesels are the best on the road. I have had 12 valve cummins and 24 valve cummins all were good engines but had weak transmissions. My fords have never let me down. EVER! I hate the 6.0 liter engines and the new 6.4 liter is the worst yet but trust me hands down the 7.3 is the longest lasting diesel on the road today. If you don't belive me look it up.

What is the cost of a Detroit diesel engine?
It depends. First you have to determine the series of your engine (i.e. series 60, 8v71, Series 50, 16V92, etc.). Next you have to find the serial # of your engine. Now you can call your local Detroit Diesel dealer with that info and request a price quote for an identical replacement to your engine. These engine swaps can be very costly and there are many alternatives to getting an engine up and running. You can also have a diesel engine repair shop rebuild your diesel engine at a fraction of the cost of swapping out the engine entirely. Sometimes something as simple as switching out your bearings or your piston rings can improve performance dramatically. Then there are times when your pistons and liners are blown and buying an entire diesel engine overhaul kit and rebuilding the engine is necessary. As long as your block is still good you can always rebuild your engine and if your block is cracked you can always try to find a good used block locally and have it rebuilt. A good place to find diesel engine rebuild parts is:Detroitdieselmiami - They carry pistons, liners, ring-sets, bearings and gaskets in pre-assembled diesel engine rebuild kits. They service Detroit Diesel, Cummins, Caterpillar, International/ Navistar, Komatsu, John Deere, Perkins and many others. They have a friendly and knowledgeable staff that can help you properly identify the parts needed for your engine. They service all diesel applications: on-highway, marine, industrial power generation and heavy machinery as well as agricultural. A good place to find a diesel mechanic / Machine Shop/ Diesel Repair shop would be on: nttsbreakdown
