Attention: TDR Forum Junkies [RAW]Issue 77 of the Turbo Diesel Register went out in the mail on Friday, August 3, 2012. Domestic addresses should allow 10 - 14 days for delivery. International addresses (including Canada) should allow 2 - 3 weeks.<br/><br/>So far, we are hearing favorable comments about the cover. It is a compilation of photographs that were submitted for past TDR Member calendars. <u>Congratulations to each of you for these great photographs - Chris Gray, Manuel Capdevila, Eric Spurlock, Lars Wells, Derrill Barnickle, David McNall, Pat McQuada, Paul Mierop, Robert Herzberg, Charles Stockton, Neil Winnemore, Tim Allread, Mark Yeary, Edwin Green, James Arnold, and Tim Sims</u>!

<br/>In addition to this great cover, what else can you expect in Issue 77?<br/><br/>Test your knowledge of the Third Generation truck by critiquing the editor's, "Technical Topics" article on, "Wish I'd Known That ... " where I try to identify the '03 - '09 trucks' strengths and weaknesses. Let us know if there are things I overlooked by sending me a quick e-mail by clicking here. <br/><br/>In Issue 77 I asked the writers to include their thoughts about a "wish I'd known that" moment as related to the ownership of their truck. Their "known that" stories are about fast cars, women, alcohol, marriage, gambling, etc. and provided me great entertainment. Unfortunately, while funny, most did not make it to the final copy you will receive.<br/><br/>The theme came from a new TDR member. They key motivation behind the purchase of his truck was "the legendary Cummins engine." But he was having trouble dialing in the truck. Pesky problems had him perplexed. Eventually he found the TDR and helpful TDR members came to the rescue. He sent me a letter praising the website members and expressing his sincere appreciation for all of the help.<br/><br/>Other articles include:<br/><br/>- Do you need extra filtration for your '03 and newer high pressure common rail (HPCR) engine? <br/><br/>- Writers Holmes, Leno, Anderson, Dagleish and Donnelly give us lots of service, parts and accessory updates.<br/><br/>- Doug Leno gives us an update on Third Generation suspension components.<br/><br/>- Robert Schwarzli gives us a look at the new 2013 RAM 1500. What might this foreshadow for our 2500/3500 trucks?<br/><br/>- CMEP celebrates 20 years of engine production.<br/><br/>- Kevin Cameron takes us back to the 1940's to help us understand today's diesel engine.<br/><br/>Enjoy Issue 77, and please spread the word about the Turbo Diesel Register.<br/><br/>Robert Patton<br/>Editor, TDR[/RAW]
