Much has been posted on this forum about squeezing more ponies out of their diesels. I have a 04 Dodge Cummins that pulls a 11000 pound trailer. I am a real conservative driver, 60-65 mph and get 11-14mpg(Not bad from all I hear).That cummins has more power than I need. Is there a way to convert excess HP to more MPG? If Akmed from Abooga Boogastan is going to respond to this I already know what he is going to say. No way, can't be done. I know he can't stand us using less fuel because he needs all the money he can get to support those 72 virgins, even if he does trade a few to Allan from NE for that dropdead gorgeous 1974 IH Hydro 70 dainty gas sipping red tractor. Wait a minute, maybe it was the virgins that were the dainty sippers. I get so confused!!!!
