Now that we know what you tow with, Let's see some pictures

Well heres my tow rig/crawler 89' F-350 roll-a-long package 460fi EO4d Just picked it a month or two ago for a good deal here on RME. I have put a cold air intake plus K&N. 35x12.5 BFG AT and new rims. New grill and alot of muscle just getting the rust off. Its loud as Hell which i hope to fix. Somebody decided that they needed to put a cherry bomb on a 460. It pulls the Cj up over soldier summit at 70 and you almost forget your towing something. It may not be brand new but I dont have a truck payment either

My Puller

Its not real fast but when my rover or friends jeep break its sure a nice recovery. Has the 6.5 td economiser heavy block with performance exhaust reprogramed computer, cooling kit and performance K&N air intake. The key to pulling with a hummer is they like running at 3k rpm. Has all the hummer stuff heated windshield ctis etc.



and when my trail rig breaks the trip is not over actualy it gets better lol.

Here are some pictures of our set up




This truck was a gift from my father-in-law who my wife says loves me waaaaayyyy more than her. He was the original owner of this truck and has always maintained it as bone stock. I will have to change some aspects of this "stock" part.

You still running natural gas?

No, I was worried about it voiding my factory warranty so I bailed on it. It was just an injection system not dedicated natural gas.

Any problems with it though?

Nope not one, I will put it back on once I hit 100k, It was amazing how it streched out 26 gallons of fuel.

Were you just fogging the CNG into the intake? Before the turbo? Who did the work?
Sorry.. Kinda interested, used to work at a place that did this...

12 MPG is BS!!!! Did you reset your avg mpg or has this avg been going for a year while not towing anything.

Yep just a fogger, before the turbo, I did the work myself

Hmmm whats your question again? I got 12 mpg on the way to moab towing that setup...hand calculated. I get between 18 and 22 most everywhere else.

Awesome!
Did you do any tuning? What kind of combined economy were you getting?
We did R&D on it for quite a while... Very interesting and fun, we even got up to 38MPG (unknown CNG consumption) at one point!
Too bad the economy fell and fuel prices dropped... Layoffs suck!

First, there is the 04' DMAX complete with: torsion bar leveled, 285x75x16 Cooper st's, Bilstein 5100 zinc's, k&n filter, Edge Juice w/Attitude (wife says: NOT NECESSARY?! I say: FUN!!) and the kids & grandkids fingerprints on the widows & feet prints on the back of the seats. The truck is a rolling Moab Ad. (my wifes claim to fame) she is more of a survivor than a driver. Although, she did drive the Rubi up the Launch Pad & alot on Fins. And the mando on Kane Creek & some on Green Day. Oops, lost focus there!


-or-


There is the 05' DPOS (my work truck) "Yeah it's got a hemi" more like: "Yeah it pulled a hami" but hey, I don't have to buy the gas!!!
I guess all you wanted was pictures huh! Well here they are.
