Actually I have that video of the Cummins! Very cool stuff!
I just saw one on TV for BD Power Products. Same video. I think...I haven't looked at that one above yet. The one I saw was this Dodge doin' a smokey burnout with a smokey doughnut followed by the guy laying down a huge trail of black smoke!!
Very cool!

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 18-Dec-02 AT 04:08 AM (EST)]Good choice
I hade to make the same choice when I got my V10.
I have 45k on my baby now, and have yet to put the "pedal to the metal"
I know it is there, I can feel the power when I pull my RV. I just can't bring myself to push it to the max. I use to race cars a lot when I was a kid, and I know how much it cost to go the max some time.
But I like reading all the things about "our" great trucks. I guess
the day I trade my truck in I will take her around the block just one more time and "let it rip"
But that wont be for a looooong time.
So for now I will treat her with the up most respect,
because I am still a working man and need not throw
My $$ into a big repair bill by being a kid again.
But I would realy loooove to.
So have Fun
and welcome to
Your new Friend,
Gary

Not Bad.
But remember the V10 was turning 4 42" tires! 
Besides, You Sure that wasn't exhaust smoke?
