Good evening everyone!! Had a few pages to catch up but I think I am there! haha
I heat with fuel oil so I think I better make sure my tank is full!
Yep I would love to play all day!! LOL
Hey David! That is a pretty cool car!!
Thats right! How do you guys even know if your truck is running? You guys must go through alot of starters cause you keep hitting the starter cause you don't know it's running!

If you are wondering about the 3,333 posts, Dave or someone else can fill you in.
What type of mpg you seeing with that 6.2?

Thanks for the invite. Actually, I am going out to camp this weekend up near Taylors Falls with my family and the in-laws. I'll take a look at the camping GTG thread.

As for mpg's I have been averaging about 13.6 driving combined and 16.2 on the free way at 72mph -- and that's with an open bed and the tail gate up in no wind. I got a topper installed today and am curious to see how that changes the mileage, but I am guessing that I'll get an increase of about 1.2 - 1.5.

Dave, you better hide Friday because I will run you over!
But don't worry, you will probably see me drive by and turn around. I may need to borrow Eric's Dodge loaner truck.

Hi Lee. I usually go by David. I am not too curious about the 3,333 posts but suspect it is meant to best last month's tally.

The weight of that topper will likely offset any mileage gain

That is way better than my V10.
The 3,333 has nothing to do with post count, it is because I apparently can not count or do simple math. Everyone else thinks it is hilarious. Especially Dave.

I might be getting better gas mileage but I have 2 less cylinders.
