The Turbo Diesel Register - The Magazine's Purpose

The purpose of the Turbo Diesel Register is to give Dodge/Cummins owners more satisfaction in the ownership of their pickup.  How so?  Each quarter we publish a magazine with 25+ columns.  Since the Fall of '93, the publication has provided an open forum for the exchange of information from the manufacturers to the owners, from members to members and from owners back to manufacturers.  The quarterly TDR magazine, a 150 - 180 page publication, features technical tips, maintenance basics, product evaluations, owner feature stories, industry news, vehicle history and development and more.  The following is a sample of the columns we publish each quarter:

• Tailgating - A Letter From The Editor

The Website's Purpose

The purpose of the Turbo Diesel Register Website is to parallel that of the TDR Magazine:  to provide an open forum for the positive exchange of information.  And as previously noted, our goal is to give Dodge diesel truck owners more satisfaction in the ownership of their truck.

As you click through the many areas on the Website, be sure to check out our Photo Gallery and our ever-popular Discussion Forums.

Regarding the website, please realize that there are some areas of the site that are only available to TDR members. The site's most popular area for members (and non-members alike) to congregate are the Discussion Forums.    With a significant number of TDR members contributing to the Discussion Forums, you're sure to see insightful conversations.  As a non-member you are invited to view the conversations.  However, in order to post to the discussion forums, you'll need to join the TDR membership.  Member-only posting and helpful moderators equate to a close sense of camaraderie between TDR members.

Additionally, non-members are welcome to peruse the classified ads.  Enjoy the search for that hard-to-find accessory or truck you may need.

Also, as a part of the camaraderie that TDR owners share, the membership has formed a support network to help one another should travel emergencies arise.  Our first TDR Travel Companion was first published in the November of 2002 and is now an annual publication.  The Website listings are growing daily. We hope you'll join the TDR membership in the spirit of helpfulness.

Thank you for visiting us at the TDR Website!
