Are they as worthless and underpowered as some people make them out to be? There is a nice 93 2500 near my parents home, but its a turbo diesel. My friend said to aviod it, as they suck, but he is a horsepower junky, so I have to take that with a grain of salt. I've heard other people bad mouth these engines, but then again I've seen just about every engine badmouthed for some reason.
