That must make oil changes pretty difficult.

Aren't there industrial applications of the Cummins that run constantly? Generators, pumps, etc.

What's funny is I would bet DC/dealer would void his warranty because the hours/key on count wouldn't match up. Actually haven't they voided warranties because of idling already?

engine hours

Kind of a side note regarding the hour meter, I just bought an 03 2500, but while shopping I also looked at Chevy's. I checked their hour meter and two of of the 1/2 dozen I looked at were so far off the other way; they couldn't of had the miles they had on them based on hours shown (3xx hours with 30,000 miles).

Im neither a liberal or very green, but this is just plain dumb. Someone needs to give this guy a reality check. Hell my dad would kick my @$$ if i left the door to the house open very long when i was a kid. Think of it this way, yur just giving money to middle eastern countries to fund their military and god knows what for no reason.

Burning diesel racing and pulling is one thing, but thats just wasteful. Nice guy or not, he's still ignorant.

plenty of untapped oil in this country-but we are not allowed to drill for it!
