94-97 because they seem to be cheaper. a 96-97 would be better because i can get a hand held tuner/programmer. i could possibly be interested in the dodges depending on the price and if they are driveable or in mechanically sound condition? years? ---

if you search MA NJ ect i am seeing alot actually that im going to check out this weekend between 4-6k years are anywhere from low mileage 94-97 and higher mileage 98-01’s i found an 01 with an assload of miles 314k for $4500… seems to be in good shape other than the miles… and all older diesels would need to be properly maintained weather its a ford dodge or chevy it doesnt matter. they’ll last as long as you treat them well. dodges- good engines junk tranny’s and rear ends older chevys… junk engines that dont take well to mods Fords- bad 5-speed trannys is what i see the most… ---

compare the years. im a chevy guy through and through. but i dont see many 94-97 chevrolet 6.5 diesel’s lasting very long. the do and they are a good workhorse but not easily modded. and for the price you pay for a newer duramax i could buy 2-3 powerstrokes… yes ones that are here in the north country rot out brake lines ect. but almost every powerstroke i see has almost 200k or more. id prefer a newer duramax but they are not in my price range.
