I like my Chevy. In fact, I just bought a new one. Traded in the 2000 for a 2003. Duramax with Allison 5 speed transmission. Mine's a 4wd 4 door 3/4 tom short bed. I tow all kinds of things but the heaviest trailer is a 28' enclosed race trailer. With the Viper, tools, 4-wheeler, generator, etc., I guess it weighs around 10,000 lbs loaded and it tows that with no problem at all.

I can tell you that they have all gone to a common rail injection system that Chevy's Duramax introduced with their Bosch system. It's quiet compared to the old system. Also, the Allison transmission is hell for stout.

Sorry about the troubles you've had with your Dodge.
