Nope 6K 55watt. They dont look that blue in person. I think its the angle and the sodium lights at the station that are throwing it off.

As far as mgp. Im getting between 13.5 and 14.5 at 70mph depending on if Im running rig fuel or not. To improve it I will be up sizing the tires with new rims and doing some engine stuff.

That's crazy. How's a guy supposed to move on and get a new truck?

Made it home. Long day. Gone by 5am and home by 8pm. Truck rides fantastic considering its heavy suspension. Got 12.9mpg hand calculated at 70-72mph with 2300rpm. I dont miss the regens and laggy tip in at all however the truck is quiet snappy. 4.30 ratio definitely keeps it in the power band.

First mods on the list will be studs, tunes, and a gear vendor OD. Gotta get my mileage back up.

Alright. Insurance has been settled. Got some serious coin to play with again. Planing on starting the build this spring. Ground up build. Pistons, heads, manifolds, fuel turbos, stick, trans and rims and tires.

BTW.... I got mine home the other day as well.... 53,000 miles. BONE STOCK! The guy didn't know a lot about diesels... He told me that this had a 6 speed auto, and 5.10 gears... he couldn't figure out why it wouldn't go over 80 mph either..... $41,000.... It worked out real good for me. Already have the SCT plugged in, and getting deleted and CAI this month!
