That was my intention to my statement, that the 6.4 is not competitive to the competitions current offerings. Not that it isn't capable, I own one, I know it's capable. Outdated fits when compared to the GM 6.6 and Ford 6.8 and 7.3. Just as the 6.0 was outdated in the GM, and the 6.2 in the Ford. Which is why they updated them.
Personally, I wouldn't mind them keeping the 6.4, just update the tune and give it some more beans over the next couple years until they come out with something else. I'd love to see a 7.0 426 for the HD trucks. A man can dream!
