I'm a big fan of the Cummins engine. I'm just not a fan of the layout of the truck and the transmission.
I had a 2003 Hemi Quad cab a few years ago and the back seats just aren't big enough for my two boys. The Mega Cab is available but looks ugly in my opinion.
The earlier automatic transmissions aren't up to the task either. They have a new 6-speed auto out now that I admit I don't know much about.
My brother-in-law has a 2003 Cummins powered 4x4 truck that he bought new and has well over 200,000 miles on it. He has replaced the transmission once and has rebuilt the front end twice but he has NEVER had to touch the engine. Just regular oil and fuel filter changes.
