SuperNova at 33000 miles

[Texas TC]

I turned 33000 miles just a few miles out of Dallas on our way to Phoenix to visit the kids and grands. This is a trip we have made three times. However, as we arrived at our destination today, I have some interesting events to report.

For some reason, the engine got much quieter at this new mileage milestone. Also, we were able to climb the grades with greater ease than on our previous trips while towing our Jeep Wrangler.

I am relatively new to diesels. This is my second diesel coach but the first one with this many miles on it. I have always heard that diesel engines need more time to break in than their gasoline counterparts. I now am a believer.

As much as I think the DT466 would be nice to have in the SuperNova, I am very pleased at how my VT365 is running after actually putting some miles on it.

I tend to cruise at 70-75 on the interstate. My GPS said we got to 81 today and I really do not know when that occurred. I just set back and enjoyed the 1100 miles I drove in the past two days.
