Ran across your forum while looking for info on my new purchase; a '99 Dodge 1-ton with the 5.9L I6 Cummins. It has 139K miles on it, but it's never had a hitch of any kind in the bed. It evidently only pulled using the receiver hitch, so I don't think it's pulled anything really heavy. It's my first diesel. I traded in my 2500 5.9L V-8 GAS-HOG because I was getting 7mpg pulling my 28ft 5th wheel. Everyone around here says that they are getting 13-15mpg with their diesels, pulling. Any of you familiar with the '99 Cummins and what I can expect, mileage-wise?
Welcome to DF. This is the place to come for getting ideas, checking out other peoples rides, asking questions and sharing knowledge. Lots of good people here. Glad to have you aboard.
Thanks, James. So far I've gotten a quick response to my questions. Not being a mechanic, it's nice to have access to those that know what they're doing.
