  Off the map
I have been lax in updates since I was in Denver for the week. Denver is a nice place, and there is a surprising preponderance of Dodge RAM pickups with the Cummins 6-cylinder diesel, and for that matter diesel vehicles in general. I suspect it is due to the fact that they have real mountains there, where torque and a good turbo are the only things that'll get you to the top. We went for a drive up to Loveland pass, and were getting passed by Cummins Rams and Ford Powerstrokes all the way, some even with large loads in tow.
