    Has anyone ever seen them at a truck show and listen to their sales pitch?

    I have a T600 on the road with a CAT and my driver was at a truck stop and another driver gave him one claiming it was worthless and wished him luck. Well, according o my driver, he has seen a noticable improvement. Leased on with Panther and pulls mostly medium to light loads.

    i bought one and it paid for itself already i ran 746 miles on 75.125 gallons running Sacramento to kingman az then i filled up with 107 gallons in kingman ran to Albuquerque then to El paso put in 95.571 gallons in el paso and ran to rancho cucamonga which is 785 miles from where i picked up and still have a half a tank the only difference i did with this is instead of running 65 i run between 63-64 and im seeing massive increase in fuel mileage so believe what you want about it but its working for my truck sucks that it doesnt work for some but theres a rumor you cant run over 65mph haven't gotten proof of it yet but if you hear something let me know thanks

    no, slowing down worked for you.


    just a note. My columbia with series 60 get 6 to 6.5 at 65 mph. At 70 i'm down to about 5. no turbo300 needed
     
    Big John Thanks this.

    I know it's your story and your sticking to it but like Medicine Man said you slowed down it has nothing to do with the turbo thingamijigger. Maybe you should buy another one and put two of them together and see what kind of mileage you get then. I can't wait.

    I also heard if you pee in your tanks it will get you better mileage. Just what I heard.

    yea i heard that too!!! LOL the numbers are showing it i only slowed down a mile an hour not much from 65 it seems to be working so im a believer just deal with it this is why i dont post on these kind of forums cause people always want to talk crap on what you believe!!! i dont mind what ya say like i said my mileage and gallons i used are showing dramatic improvement and i track my fuel mileage to the extent next up grade for me is the pittsburgh power muffler any one have one and have something good to say about it:biggrin_25514:
