Yeah I completely completely understand your feelings there. (Also why I went across the state for a dealer with lifetime powertrain on lubricated parts) as I acknowledged it sucks that no one truly knows what they are doing with this engine to diagnose it for you without some new motor new...
The issue with the factory tune is well FCA. they just stated with the 2016 press release that they intentionally detuned the Cummings so every year they can increase towing numbers without actually Changing anything. No one wants to see the same numbers every year and I understand that as well...
Also I agree that the light output on the factory projectors is, well, garbage. But it's a very good candidate for HID retrofit and it produces great light afterwards. No blinding stray light. It's a good quality focused beam with much greater intensity. You can actually see what's in front of...
I'm Canada prairie kinda cold. Just state side. We usually see a few weeks of -30F or greater below zero. Everything is necessary. I've been considering installing the inline thermostat controlled canister style coolant heater with the circulation pump but I'm unsure if the excess heat and...
I wonder if a good diesel mechanical school Wyo tech or something would take a serious look at it. They've got equipment up the wazoo and everyone there is supposed to be training for the next Gen diesel engine. My opinion would be that 95% of the people there are going to be pre grads with a...
With the exception of that one injector being heavily fouled I think the rest are surprisingly clean for 148k miles and your 1000+ hours. There must be something else going on. It's unfortunate nobody knows anything about these engines particularly the Stealerships.
I've only seen 2 ED's since I got mine in may. Both I saw locally in my little rural town. One is a new pastor with a red Laramie and I saw another new white one still had 21 day tag but I've not seen it yet. I'm very observant and lots of new ram trucks but those are the only ED's I've seen...
And that's a pretty good price, locally there was a Max steel Laramie with air suspension limited slip etc. It was loaded. I was in love with the truck when I went and drove it, I think the sticker was 56-58? I'm Polaris Industries so I also get the 1% under dealer invoice but beyond that they...

Actually I ordered and it was priced with available incentives from the order date. They only change that and give you current incentives upon delivery if they are better and lessen the cost. It saved me an extra $1,000
So in Canadian ey' is it a 3meter enclosed 2,000km a 5meter ta enclosed 3,000km etc etc?
No hard feelings just got a laugh from the US translation comment earlier
I've got mixed towing on mine, 8' enclosed 1k miles 16' ta enclosed 1500miles and about 1000miles towing car haulers with another vehicle. For significant towing anyways. I shied away from the towing best I could in favor of general payload because I hate pulling an empty trailer. I usually end...
I read that scenario before even seeing what you described happened lol. Been there. I did a dent like that on an old Ford. Tearing down an old building and the chain was a little short, the chimney was a little tall... boom. Oops
The dropped mileage during regen is during a passive regen. You can just be observant and tell. 14,000 mi and my lifetime is 24MPG with a US Gallon not an imperial gallon. Pretty on par with yours. And the regen evic is only a single ding and it's not like you're doing harm to your truck that it...
At 55-65 MPH I notice instant mileage in the low twenties that I can't get away from regardless of wind, when it begins passive regen it stays there. Upon completion it's back to low thirties
Yeah I noticed that. I'd assume a body shop could grind and epoxy that crack just as you'd Repair a bumper and Paint it for about 300-400$. Not sure if it'd be better to Repair and repaint and price replacement..
I was hauling a trailer with brush back and forth probably 3 miles out of town and back, heavy idling, towing a trailer with a jlg boom. As well as a brush trailer doing some tree Work so there were many short start ups and shut Downs, still a week later still no 80% regens even remotely close...
