One thing I forgot was the KDP (killer dowel pin) on the 12v and VP24v 5.9 engines is a weakness but a simple fix.

Got a 04.5 Cummins, good video. The electrical sensor gremlins I think your referring to is due to the "IPM" Integrated Power Module, also a known issue. It can get corrosion and do all sorts of wacky stuff. Only sensor I've had to mess with is the wastegate pressure solenoid p0243. 230,000mi and still truckin'. Although I think I'm pushing my luck with the stock injectors. Great truck but the stock 48re is trash on my 4th, lol. Next will be from Suncoast.

Amazing how putting emissions equipment on causes worse fuel mileage..which is worse for the environment.... that's good bureaucratic logic right there..lol

Think how much energy it takes to build emissions controls for a diesel that gets worse fuel mileage

The tiebreaker for me is the sound of the 5.9 What a dam good sounding Diesel!

First off..GREAT VIDEOS,GREAT INFO,PROFESSIONALLY DONE..i own a 2014 2500 ..6.7 cummins..42,000 on the odometer..full delete,tune and 4 " turbo back..at 45,000 miles..runs cooler and gained 5gpm ..CUMMINS is VERY GOOD but NOT perfect..KEEP MAKING VIDEOS..!!!

Good video! I love them both also

I know that it's hard to find a 5.9 equipped truck in the north without much rust at this point unless it was used to tow a rv south in the winter months.

I need to find a good Ram diesel ASAP, right here on the Gulf Coast.

Great job..I love my 6.7

Well explained.

I remember hauling 5 huge bin blocks on a bumper pull trailer in a 2015 6.7 Cummins. The bin blocks were about 4k-5k lbs each roughly. The truck and trailer were definitely over the weight rating. I tell you this dodge did 70mph on the freeway. I know it was not smart and all. Probably shouldn’t have done it! But the cummins took it like a champ!

My 2006 5.9 tows a 7000 pound travel trailer like it it has a flea on its back. Bye the way it’s stock with only a smarty jr. In tow mode . Easy to fix , and like you said parts are cheaper. But if you’re gonna tow heavy the 6.7 is the way to go , both trucks are great in my opinion too 👍🏻

Paul Hefterich I heard they get clogged up and have to get cleaned out to pass the smog test. People delete an cover egr and stuff , but I heard there cracking down on aftermarket companies for making things to get around the def stuff. 6.7 in my opinion is a great truck , the environmental morons are trying to make a work truck into a pulling pinto.

@Paul Hefterich My dad has a 2012, the last year before DEF. Never had a problem with the DPF, but I think it's a different system than the dpf now.

I'd agree with you. Theyrebboth rly good engines 👍

I want a 3rd gen but the electrical gremlins scare the crap out of me. Any preventative maintenance or common fixes for that?

I think their both amazing CUMMINS engines. But my preference is the 5.9 L Diesel. I own a 1993 5.9 2500 CUMMINS Diesel.

I’m just wondering. Can a vp44 truck be a common rail? I’m asking because it looks like you have a vp44 on the 03 and not a cp3.

No the vp44 and CP3 completely different fuel systems....2003 did still use 47re for while tell switch over to 48re

It sucks that these beautiful million mile engines are placed in hundred thousand mile trucks or qtr million at best...Ford should have a Cummins option also..

For me it’s the 6.7 because it’s more powerful than the 5.9, even stock, plus you can get a 4th Gen Dodge with the 6.7, which is a much better truck overall than the 3rd Gens.

When did the 5.9’s come in a HEUI?

You’re right. I was mistakenly referring to the 98-02 24v as Heui.

You don't know cummins 5.9... they never had a heui fuel system.

The real weak point of both of those engines is Dodge, all Dodge is good at is making flaming hunks of shit
