Pros for 6.4 Hemi
No after treatment system to deal with. with modern diesel engines aftertreatment system are getting very complex and expensive to repair. I know personally all the sensors that can fail and see alot of trucks come in just because of aftertreatment issues. so with a gas engine you don't have to worry about that. the other thing is if you are not driving long distances I would stay away from a diesel option. the aftertreatment systems need to get up to temp in order to function properly and if they don't you'll have nothing but problems

Hemi has low cost of buying and maintenance in comparison to the 6.7 cummins

6.4 Hemi has the ability to give you more payload in a ram 2500, give you an extra thousand pounds in comparison to the cummins

ride quality is better due to less weight in the front of the truck

and lastly sound. you can't take off the aftreatment system on a Cummins without voiding your warranty but on a gas 6.4 hemi you can install any custom exhaust system you want to make an awesome sounding engine!

Con's for the 6.4 HEMI
fuel economy on these engines are pretty bad. a Cummins will run about 50-80% more efficient then these engines will. especially when the price of fuel is so high

6.4 hemi towing capacity is not as high as the Cummins towing capacity

resale value of the 6.4 is not as high as the cummins

lifespan of the 6.4 hemi will not be as long as the 6.7 Cummins. therefore making the cummins engine a longer lasting investment if you so chose to pay up front for it!

thanks for watching guys!
