Seems the idea a "custom" diesel truck around here is a "Banks Tuning" sticker on the fender...I always get a chuckle out of that...

I did see a real nice dark blue '08+ CC/SB the other day and nearly lost it, so with that truck, mine and my buddy's '08 F350, we're up to 3!

Anyone else?!

I'm in the ocean state. My green regular cab in my avatar is up and down 95 everyday. My buddies got a white ccsb 08 fx4 with charcoal fender flares. We also have 3 obs f350's

Nice to see some 401 activity!

Not real happy with dynoing diesels around here. I've been to two different local shops and neither really knew what they were doing, when I had my 6.0 Excursion done it read high and I couldn't get a good number on my 6.4 when I had it done recently...'cause the dyno broke. They said it wasn't because my truck was too powerful for it (even though a couple of Dodges and Duramaxes went prior to my buddy and I)...it just happened. They managed to fry one of my buddy's tires too ($400) trying to load the dyno and get the boost up.

Now that Epping's open it's probably a much better way of figuring horsepower rather than dyno operators who don't know how to properly spin a diesel...

I have dyno days at the shop. I have dyno 7.3,6.0,6.4,6.7,6.6,5.9,etc and You can drive your own truck or I can run it and I know where trucks stop making power and I don't push them

Ronin you arent by any chance from cranston off of pontiac ave are you?

Negative. Down in SoCo near URI with all the Swamp Yankees. And I'm NOT the jackhole with the identical truck (white F250 CC/SB Lariat, except his has a satellite antennae on the roof) running an Edge tuner who thinks he's a GT500. My truck isn't going to look anything like his soon enough never mind all he can do is overfuel and barely get out of his own way...
