Question Are you in both camps? (DTR vs TDR ) ??????????????

How many of you are here as well as Turbo Diesel Register ( TDR ) ????
What is your honest opinion?


For those who do not know what TDR is. The site is "Turbo Diesel Register" Another forum for Cummins powered Dodge trucks. They require a membership/magazine subscription fee to participate.

I love the fact that this is a grown up site. And, the fact that most of the other admins are uglier than me...

'TDR'? Someone make a site with our letters? Whatsit stand for? Two Dumb Readers? I dunno what this 'TDR' is you refer to.

Hat, let's not go down the 'who's uglier' road again, ok? You don't need the humiliation more than once.

I'm a member over there also but prefer this site. Some things that I do like are the magazines and the booklet with people that will help you if you're need on the road. It has phone #'s, tools they have and what kind of shop you can work in. Other than that, I can count on 1 hand how many times I've visited that site.

I peruse a couple other forums but mostly hang here. This site has the most knowledgeable member and the most information. I'm not cheap, but why would I pay more, or anything for that matter, to get less? I'd rather spend the money saved here at the DTR Store!

DTR has been so helpful with adressing many of the problems I have had with my truck and I cant say thanks enough. Im also a member of cummins forum but I hardly ever visit. Comp D is fun to get on but most of those guys are way over my head on alot of things but some of there post are pretty funny they can post some more grown up things.

I read what I can on TDR, almost joined, then I found DTR.

Guess I am cheap also, but I really like this place better anyway, the free part is just a huge bonus.

DTR by far (and I don't even own a diesel right now). I was a member of TDR for a couple of years and it is not a bad site but this is by far my favorite site out there. I still visit it multiple times a day. The members on here are almost like an extended family and over time you get to know and really care about each of them and their families. I have made many friends on here and I personally thank Jack, Lary, and all of the admins. for allowing us the opportunity (and site) to gather and share information, and hang out! There is not a better place out there in my opinion.
