Default Our new truck

Just showing off our new farm truck. Picked her up Monday. She’s replacing the white truck in the background that we’ve used for the last 10 years.

She’s a 6-speed manual with the 6.7l Cummins. (I’ve got my fingers crossed on the added emission controls.) I’m very pleased with the power. It’s too soon to judge fuel economy as I’ve only put 200 miles on her, but the computer is stating 15 mpg running no load. I can handle that - the old truck was getting 8 to 9 mpg empty.
