I thought about picking up a subscription to one for some office reading material.

Anybody subscribe to any or prefer one over the other?

Diesel Power / Diesel Tech / etc.?

Hoping something might have some reasonable educational and/or tech articles. I don't have the time/patience for any online truck forums I've sampled.

I very much prefer Diesel Power. It has its fair share of look-at-the-pretty-show-truck-that-does-12s, but there is also a lot of hard-core tech. Have you followed their VE-pumped first-gen dodge? They took a junkyard pile and turned it into a 956-hp, 28mpg monster on a budget. Its been like a 10-month project with writeups the whole way along.

Diesel Power is the one that I relate to most since it is "real." They have drag weeks where you can show up in a $200,000 Cummins triple turbo, or a $2000 stock Powerstroke. Its kinda like Hot Rod and GRM had a diesel baby.

I read them all. Especially since both DP and DT are covering the OBS 7.3's just like mine. Also DP is covering DIY 6.leaker fixes too.

DP also covers odd ball diesels, if I recall. I read it on the newsstand.

thanks for the feedback. I've been eyeballing something 7.3 powered. Good to know.
