Duramax
Which is better GM Duramax diesel or Cummins Dodge. What are some opinions?
It depends on what you're asking they are better about. the Duramax is cheaper to upgrade and has better fuel mileage and stock the Duramax triumphs over the Cummins in torque and horse power. but there is a lot of stuff you can do to them both but the Duramax is all around less expensive. and as to which one lasts longer that can vary, the Duramax has proven to be a very reliable engine but the Cummins also has one heck of a reputation. Cummins= 350hp, 650 ftp of torque Duramax=365hp, 660 ftp of torque
Which is the better truck 2006 cummins or 2002 duramax?

What engine is better Powerstroke or Duramax?
Powerstroke
Is the duramax a good engine?
Everyone is gonna have their own opinion on this. Mine is yes, it is a great engine. In my opinion it is faster than dodge's and ford's diesel engines, and when it comes to towing, it will definitely hold its own. In my opinion, the duramax tows better than the powerstroke and is comparable to the cummins which might come out above duramax when it comes to towing a huge load. This is all my opinion though, I have yet to see an accurate and reliable side by side comparison of the three.
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.
Why are duramax so quiet?
I would say that the duramax is so quiet because it is overall a better balanced, smoother running engine compared to other diesels.
