I just took delivery of a 07 Ram 2500 w/ the 5.9l Cummin's. This is my first diesel. So I'm unsure of the little things that are inharent to the diesel. When I test drove the vehicle it had a vibration at any speed and the dealer replaced the drive shaft and rear U-joint. Most of the vibation has gone away except between 55 - 70 mph. My wife and I have checked the tire pressures and have made sure the lug nuts are torqued properly. Any sugestions what to look for?

What kind of MPG can I expect out of a 2006 2500 CTD QC auto 4x4? I have heard milage increases significantly after 10K, any truth to this? Should I wait on a chip until after 10K breakin? Will 2wd offer significantly better MPG? THX |

I have the same truck and have got as high as 21 MPG until the winter and ULSD fuel went into play. I now get 17-18 average and 14 while towing 8,000 lbs TT. My mpg never went up with miles, almost 30k now. Be carefull with a chip it may void the warranty.
