06 kw t600

i am still around, just been very busy moving.

the accert fuel mileage is all over, i cant get two tanks together to average the same. you have to average it over a long period of time or it will drive you nuts. when i got the truck i was getting 4.5.

i pulled out the cat coverter/muffler underneath and replaced it with straight pipe and an 18" resonator. the acert is super quiet with two turbos, cant even tell its straight.piped and the res takes the rasp out of the exh note.

get the overhead ran

all syn fluids

drive it like you have an egg under the pedal.

i run shaffers fuel treatment and it makes a huge difference in fuel mileage and i will swear by it.

i also choose my own loads and tend to stay fairly light. the load i just delivered was a crate 8' x8', 4' high and weighed 2500lbs. i got almost 9mpg. it all averages out.

idling KILLS this motors fuel mileage though

 

I think for an 06 688mi is low. maybe it's just me but if I had owned it that whole time it would have a heck of a lot more on it This trk also had an apu until I bought it so the idle time on the motor is very low. but it doesn't much matter, it will probably end up going back to the bank, it's been a hard few months.

If anyone wants it I would take $25k for it with all the flatbed gear if you get it before the bank does. that's payoff and enough to get me and the truck home so that's all I can do.

I have to send the funds to the lender to get the title overnighted to me. I thought I had it sold this month but the guy didn't like the fact that I had to send off for the title even though I was going to give him the truck and a bill of sale and send him the title. I just need to get back to Louisville to drop the trl at the yard and you can pick it up in TX.

 

the headache rack is old. its functional but i removed the locks from the handles. it needs three new handle assemblies if you want to lock it. it needs some aluminum welding here and there also and some rubber foam put around the doors to stop it from rattling.
i dont really plqn to remove it. i dont have help or time and the air lines are ran through it and the tractor protection valve mounted to the backside of it. its staying on the trk, if it sells and they dont want it mabey something could be worked out. but as of now i'm not messing with it.

 

i hate tire kickers. id almost rather let it get repod then deal with selling it
