no a powerstroke is the biggest peace of S H I T. cummins is the best diesel there is.
It can also depend on the year of the motors. The powerstroke 7.3 turbo diesel is a very strong motor that has done very well for Ford. The 6.0 powerstroke on the otherhand has done very poorly for Ford. The cummins also gets better fuel mileage than the powerstroke by around 5 mpg's just as a stock motor, but power adders will afect that. In my personal opinion i would would take the cummins over the powerstroke.

Which is better powerstroke or cummins?
If you compare the 7.3L Powerstroke to the 5.9L Cummins, I'd say equal quality. If you compare the 6.0L Powerstroke to the 6.7L Cummins, Powerstroke loses. If you compare 6.4L Powerstroke to 6.7L Cummins I'd say equal quality for that one too. The new 6.7L Powerstroke produces more power than the 6.7L Cummins and it is supposed to be the best Powerstroke engine ever. The warranty has been extended from 100,000 miles to a 125,000 miles! I'm so excited about this new Powerstroke. Ford says it is designed for an easy 300,000 miles. I don't know. Only time will tell if the 6.7L Cummins is better than the 6.7L Powerstroke.The cummins would defeat the powerstroke no its the other way around you have no idea what your are talking about because the power stroke would kill the dodge there is no power in the dodge
Is powerstroke the best diesel engine?
Most people say that Cummins is the best diesel engine but not with the new 6.7L offered in Dodge Ram trucks. The Ford Powerstroke Diesels put out more power than the Cummins by 40 horsepower and 85 pound feet of torque. Also, the new 6.7L Cummins engine has been known to overheat, stall, and the turbos are blowing in them at around 30,000 to 40,000 miles. The Cummins can't idle for more than 6 minutes or it will overheat and shut off and you must take it to the dealer to get the problem fixed. Let's compare. 6.4L Powerstroke diesel does not overheat, does not stall, but there ARE turbo problems with them. But that is no problem with the new 2011 6.7L Powerstroke diesel. As for Duramax, they've always been behind in quality but not power. So I'd say, here in 2010, that Powerstroke is the BEST diesel engine available in a pickup truck.
What engine is better Powerstroke or Duramax?

Is Ford buying Cummins?
Ford already owns some stock in Cummins. They own somewhere from 15% to 25% of stock in Cummins. You can find Cummins engines in Ford's F-650 and F-750. In Brazil, the Ford Ranger has an option of a 3.0L Powerstroke or a 2.7L Cummins.
Is ford using dodge cummins motors?
The Cummins motor is not a "Dodge". Dodge does use the "b" series Cummins engine in its pick up trucks. Ford does use the Cummins in its F650 and larger trucks. NO, Ford never has used the Cummins Diesel as far as I know. Up until 2010 the Powerstroke was built by Navistar, formerly International Harvester. In 2010 Ford starting building the Powerstroke themselves but kept the name. Dodge uses the Cummins diesel and GM uses the Duramax which was designed jointly with isuzu.

Which is the better truck 2006 cummins or 2002 duramax?
the cummins. Hands down. if you said any dodge older than a 2005, I'd go with the duramax, but the trannies in the 05 and up dodges are much better, and you cant beat a cummins for power and reliability.

Oh! You suffering from the old POS Dodge dashboards cracking and forming holes? I feel your pain. You should've got a Ford Super Duty 7.3L Powerstroke. Much better engine, quality, and overall truck!
When is Ford putting cummins in their trucks?
Ford IS NOT putting Cummins in their trucks. Chrysler Corporation and Cummins Diesel Engines, Inc. just signed a multi-year contract to keep Cummins engines in Dodge Ram Heavy Duty trucks. You can get a Cummins diesel in a Ford F-650 or Ford F-750. The F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 all have the Powerstroke diesel engines.
