107 in a 9200 lb truck ain't bad. While that ain't cheap I'll bet they aren't making any money on it

Id be interested to know how that trans is set up. My cummins is only pushing 600+ft lbs of torque, 3.54's, auto trans and I can do 120 with a tandem axle cargo trailer behind me....
And it aint an old man light to light either. It also weighs in at 9200lbs, ladder rack, toolboxes, etc.

Yes but what gears are you running? This one is running 4.10's, which for a diesel is pretty deep gearing. Figuring based on the NV4500 and 4.10's with 37" tires puts it at ~2792 RPM at 100 MPH. That is really turning that Cummins pretty fast, and much faster and you are going to over-rev the engine.

Ive got 3.54's. im about 2700-2800 at 120 if i recall, really wasnt watching the tach. most cummins redline at 3000. I bet that sucker pulls like nobodies business.
