Hello all!
I am sincerely curious about a new 3500 fellows! I recently picked up a 2016 Cummins Laramie Longhorn (same exact year and trim level as my ECO). When I saw the lead dealership tech I asked about the newer 3500 Cummins trucks and about THE ENTIRE TRUCK IN GENERAL and how the reliability is doing this summer. He shook his head and said 2019 and earlier are the way to go. Newer years are making him very disappointed
Another dealership I asked the same thing, and they said you’d be better happy with your 2016 Cummins
So, I very much like this 2016 Cummins (and ECO 110,000 miles) and it has 150,000 miles and got it used so it’s had the usual minor maintenance on an older trucks, but I’d really like to order a new 2023 3500 Cummins.
I just got my 2016 ECO back a few weeks ago after 2 months and 3 weeks from the collision shop. Unfortunately, there was a deer impact in it… so I had to buy this 2016 3500 Cummins to enjoy this whole summer knowing it would be a long wait on the ECO
Am keeping both so if anything goes wrong with one, I have a diesel to pull
Back to the new gens 3500 Cummins, will I be running into issues or will they have worked out all the problems I have read about?
Thanks for help whether I should wait and keep both 2016’s and fix them as they need work, or the 2023 should be a good purchase?!
