My son is selling back his VW diesel the end of this month. I guess we just wait!

Here in the west, I try to stay around 50 in 5th. My truck has 3.92 gears, and 265x70 - 17's for tires. I also go down the hills at this same level. Being a tongue trailer puller, used to pull a 5th wheel, I like to move with the largest vehicles. Getting pushed by passing traffic, sway control...

I'm a a fixed? income "possibly" getting less if Rep. Ryan gets his way! The D&G cooler at $995.95 is just way out there. My father started owning Dodge, Chrysler vehicles in the 1920's until he passed in 1999. I have never been around a Chrysler vehicle, I've had ten in my 50+ years, that even...

I had a '02 Chevy Duramax, sunk a hole in a piston from excess exhaust temp. It had 239,000 miles. It was also on its third Duramax v8 engine. I gave the truck, crew cab, short bed away for $125.00. Exhaust gas temps were crucial to monitor. 1200 degrees egt is high, higher caused failure. Next...

I have been towing several times the last three weekends. I regularly see the 250's in engine oil temperatures.. Looking between water and oil, water hovers around 208/225, depending on hills. Here in Washington state when there is a hill I-5 goes up then down. There is some cutting in hill...

Now what oil is used by my dealer. All I can do is ask? Then go searching.

I was towing a 6,500 lb travel trailer in a tail wind on the Ashland summit grade NB / I-5 just in Oregon leaving California. I have whatever the selling dealer put in it on its second oil change. The ram is a '15 ED. It tows nice, just annoying that under some conditions it really has no...

I've read all your interesting posts. Now where is the vital information about temperature and thermal breakdown. I have entered this site on the oil temperature side. I have seen temperatures in the 274 degree region. My dealer hear in the Pacific Northwest wanted the oil changed. My concern...

Your service writter is a twit. I bought the smaller 17" rims on my '15 and it was on 20's new that I didn't want. They re-flashed the Speedo in five minutes and five miles of city/highway driving. They did it at delivery. I wanted the 195-70r17's with the 392 axle for towing. Other than high...

Thanks boost in for the J&D info. I left an email on their web. They take weekends off

My highest eng. Oil temp so far has been 274 at the pass from Cal. Into Oregon on I-5. Had a strong tail wind.

Thanks for the co

You mentioned a "company" addressing a heated oil issue last February. Have they come up with a product now in mid June. I am concerned that "hot" engine oil will harm this tiny motor that is hard to replace.

I have a '15 ED and I have seen engine oil temps as high as 274 degrees. The dealer wants the oil changed if temps get above 240. I live in the NW of Washington state and pull a 6400 lb rv to so.cal. there are seven major climbs each direction of travel. The highest temp was with a tail wind. An...

Retired Bones here, the 15' ecodiesel is my third truck. I've towed about a third of my 23000 miles in the last year. I tow I
