If you read around on CTD forums then you'll enjoy that here it's a 6.7 that gets better mileage than any 5.9 (so far). Welcome. Consider joining up at TEAM CUMMINS, too.

Welcom, Ron! Good to see another CTD.

To join the team, you'll have to load your truck first. Just click on the "Garage" link and the top of the page and you can load your truck (and later a fuel log). After you've loaded your truck you can click on the "Team Cummins" link right underneath my or slowmover's name on the left side, then click "Join" on the next page that comes up.

I just signed up for the team and clicked on slowmover I didnt realize until I read the post again that you gave me the invite. anyway here I am . and thanks slowmover I guess I made your 6.7 MPG day, I was sure hoping for better MPG when I got my CTD and Im sure I will with all your ( ecomodders) ideas and support

Get a fuel log going there Ron, and then we can see how it goes for you.
I run two logs, one with the truck and the other the truck plus studio apartment.
