What makes you want a diesel for so little driving? You're paying extra upfront for the diesel engine, more expensive oil changes, fuel filters, DEF, and diesels are just in general more expensive to fix when they break. And yes, the ecodiesel does like to be driven a lot because of the DEF, if...

2020 1500 longhorn ecodiesel 103k miles Oil change every 10k Trans every 50k Transfer case/diffs every 30k Walmart brand DEF So far so good. Couple problems and recalls but most had been covered under warranty. Only thing that wasnt was some DEF system sensor that was like $800 i think around...

yes it fits the ecodiesel but i did just have one of the shocks fail sooooo idk lol

Been a while since a posted, truck is at 96k miles now. The truck has been great until this morning. Looks like the fox front shock broke/pulled out. I don't really wheel my trucks, the only dirt this truck sees is on job sites. Went over a bump while turning and heard a loud clank. Dealer...

even at $6.20/gallon here in SoCal is still cheaper than gas because the Hemi calls for 89... I just try not to look, I sure as heck don't drive a truck to save money. I just like being able to go 600+ miles on a tank of gas, granted its almost $200/tank now

73k miles and it pretty much stays that mpg at 80mph. The sweet spot is about 65mph and it goes down from there.

Maybe get one of those back seat covers for dogs on Amazon. If they spill chocolate milk or something you’re never going to get it out of the perforated leather.

Oof, my last truck was also a 15’ Sierra 1500. Nice truck but the ac went out at 50k, power steering motor at 75 and torque converted blew up and took the trans with it at 108k. None of it was covered under warranty. The trans was $4500 to fix so I just limped it to Carmax and sold it to them.

you gotta remember that most people that are happy with their truck don’t hang out on forums and post about how reliable it is. Most people on here are looking for custom mods or because the truck broke down look up your favorite company on the BBB website and i guanantee is has a 1 or 2 star...

Ohh, I probably misunderstood him over the phone and assumed it was a knock sensor. but ya NOX sensor would make sense since I was getting a service DEF message and as far as getting it covered under warranty would be a pain in the *** and don’t feel like fighting with them. I already got my...

same thing happened to me after I disconnected my battery, the whole 12" u connect was on the fritz, had a mini panic attack thinking I broke it but the next morning everything was fine. It turns out the computers just need a few hours to fully turn on.

You might have a rough time, I had a 26' (30' with tongue) gearbox toyhauler that weights about 6800 dry and it was kinda sketchy driving around and would bottom out my suspension. Even with airlift air bags it would still sag. I think a major factor is where the axles are on the trailer and how...

sounds about right for city driving with a lifted truck with a hemi. Even on my ecodiesel ill drop down to 18mpg if im just driving around town.

congrats!!!! the Ecodiesel gets crazy good mileage if you're not hauling butt

so 25 months and 70k miles and the truck is back at the dealer. Truck went into limp mode, the check engine light came on, dash said "service DEF system" so I limped it straight to the dealer. It ended up being a bad knock sensor which was $700 and $200 in labor since it's electrical and not...
