I am thinking buying a new LMM and just curious what everyones input on the new motor? What are the upsides and downsides of the motor and any experience anyone has had with them?

I now a couple of people that have them and they say they have alot of stock power. But the only down faw I heard from them is the emission junk. The one guy change his exhaust and getting a trouble code with cel but the truck runs fine.

I was experiencing poor fuel economy. 15-17mpg until it got broke in. Now i have been getting 20-21mpg. Everything is still stock. I now have 8000+ miles on it. Makes a huge difference if i run over 2000rpm. drops to 15 again! 1800-1900 rpm i run around 73mph and get 20 avg. depending on the headwind.
it's more or less a LBZ motor but with all the emission stuff strapped on it.never heard any complaints except for fuel economy.
