If your looking for reliability and turbo diesel power,a 7.3 powerstroke or 5.9 cummins are the only choices.I personally run IDIs since they are basically tractors that do 65mph,they literally tow anything hooked to it,and are dead reliable.takes 1 wire to keep it running.A lot of people under estimate the old IDIs,but they been gettin' er' done for years.But it sounds like you are looking for a newer truck,so I would only recommend staying pre emission and DEF,since those are really the only problems the modern diesels have,but to repair them costs more than the truck itself.When I eventually look for a newer diesel,it would be a 7.3 powerstroke with a 6-speed.
Chevy's are known for bad diesels(early 2000s and before),dodges are known for weak auto trannies,loose front ends and bodies more prone to rust(never changed yet),Fords are known for brakes that need to be replaced more frequently(not as much on newer trucks).I don't know about you but I would rather do a brake job every couple years,then replace an engine,tranny,fix bad rust,or rebuild front ends.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
