gear vendor ?

Does anyone on this forum own a 7.3 with a gearvendor unit. I am thinking about putting one in my 2002 f350 for more mpg.

There's a couple that have them. You'll have to put a lot of miles under your belt before the savings in fuel economy pays for the unit and maintenance.

I had one on an 88 F250, and there really isnt any added maintence cost. It gave me a good 30% increaase in mileage. The truck was an 88 F250 7.3 idi C6
