    The Ford Cummins 7.3L that came in the Dodge Dakota F250350 Titan AT4 was super popular in the 90's. I mean besides the Ferrari 458 EvoPerformante DBX and the Mercedes AMG M6 GT3RS Continental, it was a best seller. I think the Buick TaurusCamaro Bonneville and Saturn FRS GenesisCorrolla maybe sold more units. I would need to consult VinTavarishHooviewiki's records though for some exact sales figures.

    I could believe the absolutely awful to work on thing, any transverse V6 SUCKS. But we used those Dodge Ram Promasters for delivery in my old job as a courier, they were surprisingly very reliable, held more than a Chevy van, our drivers loved them with the stand up head room and were better on gas. Also WAY better in the snow with FWD vs the open diff RWD Chevy vans(stupid cheapskate owner didn't see how a $250 locking diff was cheaper than a tow bill/down time on those Chevies). We also tried diesel Mercedes Sprinter vans, bought a couple of them 2 years old, 50k miles, still under warranty. One of them spent more time in the shop than doing deliveries, the other one was solid mechanically but both had broken seatbelts, sagging/sprung front doors, broken interior door handles, then the good one got filled with gas to the tune of $4000 in repairs. Dumped them after 5-6 months.

    In California, at least, it is illegal for shops to drain oil out of a vehicle using the drain plug. Used oil is toxic waste including heavy metals. Oil changes are made by aspirating (sucking) oil out of the filler tube so there is no chance of human contact.

    I installed a new oil drainer at a workshop and one of the office staff thought he’d have a play plugged in a airline to empty it as you pressurise it to empty it he didn’t close the valve to the bowl and created a fountain of waste oil and instead of unplugging it or turning off the valve he ran. So now there’s 60 litres of oil all over the floor and 2 customers cars. Moral of the story. Stay in your lane you idiot 😂
