Anyone that reads the 2 big diesel magz, diesel power or 8-lug? well in 8 lug they have a story on Greg Higgs truck, pretty basic looking but has some neat toys. but they call it a 07 chevy mega cab. come on now. lets have some proof reading

I read that too!! In my opinion, a typo would be "Dodg mega cab" or "Doge mega cab", but to call a Dodge a Chevy....c'mon, these guys are supposed to know their stuff.

i personally take what the mags print w/ a grain of salt. they are in a business after all. if i need anything, this is where i turn, not the pages of those things

It was chevy mega cab in the article but dodge mega cab in some sort of sub title if I remember right, either way it was a pretty bad typo. I always pick up the mags when I see them around(Diesel Power, 8 Lug, Diesel World etc) but I wish they would carry more content and more technical information.

I get a kick out of the cummins trucks in the magazines having studded and o-ringed headS. An I-6 has ONE head.

They are too much like all the other truck magazines out there, except they have "diesel" in the title, half the time they are covering suspension lifts, or how to install a navigation radio in your truck, or something like that, very little diesel tech for a diesel centered magazine.

I thought that was one good looking chevy Actually I don't know what is worse calling the Dodge a chevy or bragging that it was a seriious work truck.

I pick them up every once in a while, but I rarely learn anything from them. I'd love a more technical diesel magazine. If I have to look at another four page Banks ad, I'm gonna choke someone.
