Dyam!!!
To be get told by Bickle is very odd. I don't think I have ever seen him scold anyone on this forum (I am open to being corrected)
carry on...lol
On a Positive note,
I saw 8.3 liters per 100 last week on the highway and am averaging 11.9 liters per 100 now city/hwy. This tank with 3.9 rear end I could see between 950 and 1000 K,, but that will depend how much city I do. With this rear end I do expect to see a bit less then with the stock rear end. I have just over 4,000 Km on the truck so it is improving with each tank.
I also just heard Ram double production of the Eco Diesel
How does the strong US dollar benefit buyers there?That's some nice mileage you got there!
Our company diesel hasn't shown as of yet. When asking about a lead time on the truck, we were told no ship date as of yet. The reason was for the Dollar being so low currently. Most of the trucks being made don't stay or come to Canada. They are being shipped into the US. With the exchange rates right now, the Americans are saving a big chunk of their new cars/trucks.
Hope everyone is okay with the burning Exploder.

I was just at a customer of mine that builds parts for the F150 (among many other things), and they just built some new equipment to top up the production volume to Ford's new projections.
I spoke with a dealer earlier this week, used trucks sourced in Canada and shipped to sell into the US is a pretty big thing right now with a 30% exchange. Finding nice preowned vehicles on Canadian lots is expected to be a problem.
My avalanche can get 12 something per 100 km. Would have to drive a ******** to make up that cost. DamnI am pretty impressed. 8-9L / 100kms for the ecodiesel ram.
My old '08 F150 supercrew w/ 6-1/2" box 4wd w/ LSD rear axle...at 7200 lbs ++ is getting 14L/100kms. So that diesel is 35-40% more efficient. Pretty impressive.
But still can't fathom paying 60K for a new truck.....
Exactly. in 6 trips to grand bend, 2 of those hauling my trailer, 2 bikes and gear i got 13.560k buys a lot of gas
