    Not yet. My trailer is getting some welding done on stake sockets. Will get it and final inspection this morning. Laundry is done and my bill is paid so I am ready to roll.

    Well folks, I would like to say that this is just super. I really like the routes we are running and the system is much easier than I thought. (Thanks to several pm's) I am getting an overhead done in the morning to hopefully get better fuel mileage. Cummins Isx only getting 5.6 no matter how slow and steady or if I drive her like I stole it. Been up north untill today so I had no idle time. Thanks again for all the help.

    How many miles? How much did it cost you? Any difference in before and after?

    Have you had the CAC (Charge Air Cooler) tested? If it is leaking much then mpg will be bad, and many of them out there are leaking. It is an often overlooked item that can affect mpg and performance.
