I love my 06 dually, with 31's, Edge attitude w/juice programer, MBRP 4" stainless exhaust turbo back system, volant air kit. Though I would not buy the volant again, I would go with K&N filter kit. Programmer in tow mode tows my 27 fountain and 30' enclosed car trailer like nobodies business. My programmer has a test mode 0-60mph and 1/4 mile times. Stock configuration 0-60 mph 14 seconds. Programmer at level 5, 0-60 is now 7.2 seconds. It suprises alot of people. The biggest power notice is just passing people or romping the gas at 40 mph. Fuel milage is now around 15 mpg(everyday driving and towing), but I've seene 17-18 on highway.

Why don't you like the volant air kit? I was going to put one on my 06 dually. Ike

Now that GM has broken off relations with Isuzu, the end of the duramax is near. What will GM use to replace it? Mitsubishi? I guess all you GM guys will have to switch back to a American made truck, Ford or Dodge!

OUT OF A JOB YET? KEEP BUYING FOREIGN!

With that turd 6.0L, and now the flame throwing 6.4L, I went with the Duramax. You can cry "buy American" all you want, but when I buy a truck I want to drive it home, not around to the back of the dealership to the service dept!!

GM is selling it's shares of Isuzi, not breaking off relations and will continue buying from them. So I've read.

Great response! I can also enjoy my Duramax while GM further refines their product since it "RUNS." With 101K on my 03 I have only done filter/fluid/tire changes. The brake pads are still original. BTW my truck was built in Texas and the new ones are all out of Flint, Michigan.

There is a OSO member that bought the 08 F350 and didn't even get 200 miles on it before it had a meltdown. After being told there is a 2 month wait at the dealership he got Ford to replace it with a new truck. That is not the way I want to start my new truck experience.

GM has a long term deal to buy diesels from Isuzu. So the Duramax IS NOT going away.

The engines take about 10k miles to truly break in.

one thing is for sure.....the DPF's(diesel particulate filter) on all these new motors are hurting everybody. I pray the tuner guys hurry up and market a fooler so we can hack this junk pc enviro stuff off our trucks.
