i obviously agree to a point, that's why i'm building with an old mechanical pre-BS cummins. however at this point they've been messing with the systems long enough they at least aren't new.
for me it's cost vs engine on this. trading my 2500 GMC and the WK in on this Tahoe. the 55 will eventually be my heavy hauler, but i need this to still be able to tow the YJ in the enclosed. of the 3 engine choices, the 3.0, 5.3 and 6.2, i'd rather have the 6.2. however it's only available on the highest package and costs like $10k more. between the 5.3 and the 3.0, the torque of the 3.0 is a no brainer. 383lb-ft @ 4100 vs 460lb-ft @ 1500. plus i've seen magazine reviewers getting upwards of 27mpg highway with it, and Banks should release some their magic box for it this year.
