If fed a constant supply of clean fuel, that cummins could sustain 2000 rpm longer than you could physically stand being in the truck.

That's why they only come with 35gallon tanks

That's your 4:10 gears....Gotta love it

Unless you climb a lot of hills they don't do any good IMO.

That Dodge just sings along a 2000 RPM. When I run at 2200 RPM, I'am at 75 MPH. Nice speed, but you are waiting for that dreaded red flashing light.
