  1. Fewer bends in exhaust piping = freer air flow and healthier sound. The helthier sound comes from bigger pipes, and the one less bend in the exhaust, while it is fewer, im sure has no effect on HP(or extremely minimal)
  2. Just to distinguish itself from others is the best guess I can come up with.
  3. Sorry i do not have a link, i know the NHT and non-NHT springs are different as others have stated, i assumed they were wider. I hope somebody can chime in on the exact difference between the two. Ryan, don't the NHT trucks have the tranny cooler, or do all the 6 speeds?
  4. The NHT comes with 3.73 gears, wider rear springs and the larger rear end( 12 bolt?) On a side note, drove 400 miles roundtrip this weekend, on the way there got 18.8 according to DIC driving 69 with a decent tail wind. On the way back got 15 driving around 70 with no wind. The way back is slightly uphill over the 200 miles. These things are still trucks for sure! Had a couple full throttle runs on the way back that put a smile on my face
  5. I have done 125 in mine, it had plenty left. Didn't want to push the tires any more past there max.
  6. Yes, NHT, was under 25 at least, and leveling kit and 20s kill mileage with increased speed im sure.
  7. I have driven around 55 and i get great mileage, but driving that slow KILLS me. I can drive 65 on highways but anything below 70 on interstate just seems so SLOW.
  8. Past weekend went on a 200 mile trip. On the way there going about 75 was getting around 15-15.5. On the way back driving 80 i was avereging 12.5. Not much wind either way. Not great numbers, speed kills mpg's, but it's a truck, i didn't buy it for great mileage, i bought the 6.2 for the POWER!!!
  9. In town i typically get 13-13.5 and on the highway i have gotten a worst of 13.8(driving 75 in the wind) and a best of 21(driving 55 mostly through flat ground and a few rolling hills) Driving around 75 I usually see 16-17.

  11. As previously said, it's not that we don't wear our seat belts, it's just annoying while driving around the farm, or hunting where you can be in and out of a vehicle in a short amount of tiime.
