Diesel Power Mag

[CHolman]

Has anyone seen the newest issue of Diesel Power? THey actually have a decent right up/up's about cummins and not all about PS and D-max's...

 

[Nightram]

Yeah, I have it, it is a good article.

 

[BigEasy]

is that the one with the 3 red Banks' trucks on the cover, or is there a new one out?

 

[PAllyn]

Where can I buy this magazine?

 

[CLiberty]

I picked it up today, pretty good actually, even tho all the "tech" stuff doesnt apply to my dinosaur.

What are they going to do for the next issue? They've already shown you how to put an exhaust, box and air filter on all three brands. TDR is the mag to look forward to, Diesel Power is a 3 minute read. I buy it for the advertising and my 2 yr. old likes to look at the pictures.

 

[CHolman]

that's the Banks Sidewinder Project truck. I guess sometime in the near future if you have deep pockets you can buy those add ons.

Give it time, folks.

The TDR magazine targets a brand and model specific audience... a very captive audience as well. So, it's not tough to keep and maintain interest... Oh yeah, the TDR has 1/4th the circulation of Diesel Power Magazine - so you can see why DP has to appeal to the masses.



Diesel Power Magazine came out in March and it'll be some time before it fully matures. This isn't Cummins Power Magazine. For now, the content that the publisher feels will attract a varied audience is what will end up in print. Most important of all - the magazine has to turn a profit. In order to do that - the advertisers with the most bread get in first... and often. In time, the playing field will level. Be patient.



In time, there will be more in-depth technical articles... and more European diesels if I have anything to do with it.

Good mag, even had a picture of our shop in there when we had a dyno day last February! Better late then never, I guess...



Anyway, I really liked that red F250, the shortbed standard cab. WAAAAAY cool.

Hey Evan, not to be a thread steeler but thanks for the great work on my PDR transmission and other bombs. You guys are the greatest. Sorry about the road kill.

Glad you are enjoying it! I will pass the kind words on the crew.

I saw that truck earlier this year in SoCal. The owner walked us thru the whole truck. Very nice looking and very well done. Although, a couple of the local CTD's handed his a** to him at the drags. :-laf
