Love you web page on Duramax. The engine sounds brilliant. The evenly and consistent sound reminds me of MB 300SD. Just a quick question: Aside from different hood, is the front bumper taller than LD version?
If you look on my web page at the Black GMC or Red Chevrolet.. Look at the black part of the bumper (top) if you look at a Light-Duty the black part is on about 1 inch high but on the Heavy-Duties it's 3 inches high and the grill comes farther down than on the Light-Duties..
I would love to buy a new 2500 or 3500 series if these engines are available soon. I have a 2000 Silverado that I love but need a 4WD and would like to go diesel then too - when will they be out & will it be a sticker price situation? Anyone know of a dealer in Central Florida that will pre-order and make a good deal too? I'd hate to got to a Ford Powerstroke!!!
Pricing for the 2001 HDs have been released, including the Duramax 6600 and 1000 Series Allison.. www.TheDieselPage.com will have more on options after they get the info converted to HTML format..
Those look like the prices I was expecting. Getting up to around $40K for the truck I'ld want. I was hoping it would be a little lower. Only question, are those MSRP or invoice?
looks like most expensive is 3500, 4WD Fleetside Crew Cab, LT $36,554 plus 4310 for Duramax + 1200 for Allison.=~$42,000 MSRP
substitute the 8.1 engine and MSRP is ~38K.
Truck price itself is pretty competitive, small percentage over the competition, which is expected. The Allison is pricey. How much are you willing to pay for the best tranny out there?
I would suspect Dodge prices to be similar when they get their Cummins/Allison combo to market.
I did not see where it said MSRP on the price list. Oh well, that is good to hear that the prices were MSRP. Should be able to knock something like $3,000+- off? At least after the first few months.
