Anyone know what changed on the late 07's to the new model year 08? Concerning the 6.7. Were more emission controls added in 08 over 07 6.7? I have scoured the country looking for a 5.9, and I am finding a few, but there seems to be a lot of mid mile 08's out there, and a few late 07's. I am hesitant of a late 07-6.7 becuase of the new model and typical bugs. I am thinking maybe best to find a low mile 08. the 5.9's are as expensive as newer 07 0r 08. Are the 08's quieter?

All opinions welcome!

 

really no difference wetween th 07.5 and the 08's

 

There's a few 5.9's up here in Canada... where are you looking?

 

I have hit autotrader for two weeks straight, and then went to the Dodge website and did a zip code search expanding 200 miles from furtherest dealer, starting in Wyoming. So basically I have hit every dealer that has a website, in Wy, Mt. Ne, Wisc. Mn. Sd, Nd, Id, Utah, parts of Co and Az. I would bet I have searched over 200 dealers, and probably 50 car brokers/dealers. THere are quite a few 5.9's out there, but many with low miles are on the east coast. And prices are some what inflated, like I said, I can buy a low mile 07.5 or 08, for the same price (close) as a low mile 06 or 07 5.9.

What would you guys do? I am pretty much a diesel virgin, I do drive them 30k a year at work but they are f-o-r-d-'s! I own a 1500 hemi and want a diesel for my camp trailer and horse trailer.

 

I never checked Canada, never gave it any thought. Is it pretty easy to bring a used truck back to the states?

 

I used to do it on a daily basis. I used to be a driver for a truck exporting company.

I think there's a few hoops to jump through... Nothing that kept the man I worked for from becoming quite wealthy doing it.
