It is my personal opinion that diesel trucks should be an inline 6 for a few reasons, but the one of the biggest reasons is you can actually get to stuff on the engine without pulling the cab. I know that you can get to the normal maintenance items on all of them without pulling the cab, but lift the hood of all three and see which one you would rather work on if it were you or a tech.
I have studied this truck with the eTorque system and impressed.
Wish they would make an SUV version...
Also the German made 8sp automatic is strong.
