    That's how my Cummins was as well. Always pulled best right around 1400-1700.

    With my cruise set at 60 mine lugs along at 1000 rpm. X-15 or not, anybody with more then 14 minutes experience driving a truck should know that doesn’t do an engine any favors.

    Down speeding may gain some fuel mileage, but at what cost? I think it causes more problems with emissions and more strain on internals.
