Nice Cummins. Does the Cummins or the V10 have more power?

They both feel about the same, the v10 has never had any issues pulling alot of weight. The difference is the v10 gets 5-6mpg while towing and the cummins gets 11-12 towing.

This truck is hooked up to a trailer 7 days a week in the spring summer and fall. the only time its not hooked up to a trailer is during the winter.

Also its not worth my time to put the mirrors down and re-set the mirrors so i can see out of them, every time i un-hook it from the trailer. The mirrors are not power so its a pain in the ass to adjust them every time.

If i had power mirrors i would fold them down each time, but i dont, so im not going to spend the time to adjust them everytime i use it while its not towing.

Thanks man, got the plow mount on the truck today and got all the wiring sorted out and ready to go on. Another couple hours running the wiring and we will be golden.

Awesome lookin truck. Get a fuel pressure gauge on it ASAP, the lift pumps take out the VP44 all the time.
