Attention: TDR Forum Junkies Stats
I think we need to see what our options are, then react . If the low sulphur fuel doesn`t hurt my engine life, doesn`t affect my mileage or power, why not run it ? Even if it boosts fuel cost to gasoline levels, we still get better economy with more power. That`s why I bought this truck. Plus, it just sounds *****en! Years ago in Vo-Tech school, we heard a great story about tires and safety. For years the AAA looked over accident stats before making the observation that cars involved in accidents appeared to have their better tires on the rear of the car. Therefore, they suggested that it would be safer to put the best tires on the front. Fast forward 10-15 years, Now it seems that cars in accidents seem to have their best rubber on the front. It is a poor researcher who cannot make his stats say what he wants them too. Let`s look at this closely & see what Cummins has to say. I`m sure they will chime in. Don. :-{}

I don't worry so much about personal vehicles, but I still shake my head when I see a dump truck spouting out those THICK black clouds of smoke. That will sure be nice when it's gone!
