Some engineer types discuss ecomodding options for a 2004 quad cab Dodge 2500 pickup

Quote:
Trading is not an option. I use this truck everyday and for what it is, it gets great gas milage. If there is room for improvement and an chance to learn something, then why not. I can do all the work myself. I am just looking for the best place to start.
Starts out as a question about gearing, progresses from there to the full gamut...

FYI:

Eng-Tips forum: Transmission, Driveline, Hybrid Drive engineering - Gearing for gas milage

The thread links to EM (to the Dodge pickup aero shell study), which is how I noticed it.
