Tow mode is weird with the new drive modes. You select it via the dash and it auto engages 4 auto. Don’t want that on but the shimmy goes away in 4 auto like I’d expected since it’s putting less power through the rear driveline. I leave it in auto towing and it does just fine so I don’t see the...

2026 CC/6.5 Hurricane 4x4 Well, didn’t make it to 1000 miles before the first real issue. Needed to tow this weekend so I hooked up about 4000lbs. Highway and acceleration is fabulous and overall towing is great. I was mostly running highway on the first part of the trip. The 2nd part is 2...

My new 2026 with less than 1000 miles does it as well. My 2021 gauges were rock solid.

It does not. Just a level sensor.

Well, by the recommendation someone knows his way around a hurricane very well, I changed the oil at 665 miles before an upcoming towing trip. (Recommended 500-1000 to get any unwanted leftovers out). Coming from a 21 hemi this oil change is a million times easier. Not completely without...

Not a great photo but I just picked up this night edition 26 silver synth Monday night. 3.0 hurricane. Level 2 group.

Fumoto on my hemi because of the horrible drain onto the sway bar design. Picked up one for my Fiancés car too since I already had the drain kit for it and hers was on a big Amazon sale. Oil filter location alone might be reason to swap to a hurricane.

My brothers current 24 JGC has auto level headlights as well as auto level rear suspension. I’m not a fan of more electronic complication but I load my truck up frequently (within its limits) so auto level lights would be a nice feature for a truck that toes and hauls frequently. Not...

Not sure how much guys have experience with higher performance stuff here but to me the new manifold sounds more like a car with headers. The header is thin walled and lets more of the tinny sounding exhaust noises escape. Going to chalk it up as the metal composition being different/harder I...

It just sounds more ticky under high load. No different at all for the actual exhaust note or any other operating conditions. Maybe a little more ticky externally on high idle cold starts on that side. I’d have done both but I was time limited with my current schedule for the next couple...

Oh also, you’ll remove a few of these to get the fender liner out. May or may not be able to reuse but mine didn’t hold tension well after removal. These are a worthy replacement for the factory pieces. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1WWWZNF?ref_=ppx_hzod_title_mob_b_fed_asin_title_0_0

Well, the junky manifolds finally caught up to me. Maybe a new world record for mileage? Just before flipping 110k the passenger manifold cracked right up the middle. Once it was removed you almost couldn’t see the crack. Removal was straight forward. Wheel off/front fender liner out. Remove...

Yeah mine runs about 5-7 degrees cooler in all instances vs the original. Will be coming up on another change fall spring 2027 so will see how the fluid fared this time around.

My Amsoil with about 48k miles on it looked so much worse than yours. I sent it in for analysis and it got a glowing report. The factory fill dumped at 50k looked a little nicer than yours. Mine developed a little deceleration noise at 62 mph around 50k. It got a little worse over the last 50k...

A sport truck would be cool but I’d like a bigger cube higher HP V8 option in a normal truck, not some stupid halo package that runs 80-90k. Basically every argument against it he made in that article also would rule out bringing the 5.7 back but he did that anyways. I get his argument about a...
