The HO Cummins is a power house no doubt but what was your fuel consumption? My last trip was 9.6-10.4 MPG average. I ran 70-75 mph..always 5 over the speed limit.
Im looking into the delete kit.
Truck now has 1,480 miles on the OD. We had favorable winds and cool temperatures both directions. I burned 62 gallons of fuel for 701 miles = 11.3 mpg. My son with his Lance 820, 2006 Chevy Duramax diesel SWB, averaged 13.5mpg. I outweigh his setup!!
