As always, towing mileage is far more dependent on moving the wind vs. moving the weight. My tuned ecodiesel got 17-18mpg pulling a loaded flatbed car hauler weighing 6000lbs, but dropped to 14-15mpg pulling my empty 7x12 cargo trailer at <1200lbs. My current hemi gets no better than 11mpg...

Have you checked the voltage of the new battery? Maybe you got a bad one.

Any first impressions on road noise and ride quality? Would appreciate an update after you've had some time on the freeway, etc. I've been pretty set on these as my next set of winter tires and will be deciding soon on when to purchase. I'm also curious about any effect on highway fuel...

Get a tune from Green Diesel Engineering in Michigan. Expensive, but well worth it. And don't allow the dealer to do any more software updates!

I used to use a JB3 on a BMW 535XI...it was pretty amazing and fairly easy to use. The new versions with phone app gotta be better I'd think.

Do they actually solve the problem for your wife? Many running boards fit so high and tight to the bottom of the vehicle that they end up barely providing any benefit. This is why the PRB's are so desirable. In my case, I drive my 84yo father around and there's no way he's getting in without...

I changed front and rear brakes at 110K miles, but only because the rears were almost gone. The fronts easily had 60% of the pad left still. I am confident I would have easily got to 150K, probably way more. Full disclosure - I do a lot of highway miles, but still!

Curious what the experience was. Any pushback from the dealer or trouble with getting the replacement part?

Thank you, I very much appreciate it and all your help here.

@Cbty2050 I've got a cracked window frame (power sliding glass rear window) but no leak that I can detect. Is this a matter of time before it leaks? I gotta get into my dealer for the Active Air Dam CEL/U11E9 problem so wondering if I should have them mess with it. I have the warranty...

I replaced mine just over a year ago at 110K miles. Surprising to me, the rears were almost gone and the fronts still had easily 50% of the pad left. I replaced all pads & rotors anyway, but I was pretty shocked to see how good the fronts were at that mileage. (I do drive a lot of...

2019 Laramie CC 4WD. 142,000miles -Battery replaced just last week -Right side Exhaust manifold covered by CPO warranty at 97K -CHMSL gasket replaced. -rear sway links replaced at 140K -driveline fluids replaced at 100K -all brakes replaced at about 110K, only the rears actually needed...

Yeah, this is why its curious to me. It seems specifically related to low-voltage vs. normal or no voltage. I've disconnected/reconnected my battery also with no issues. The morning my truck wouldn't start I did not have all the lights/malfunctions until I had driven it a fair bit, during...

Interesting. Was either battery "bad" at the time you replaced them? I think the problems are a result of a BCM/ECM reaction to low voltage. At the time of replacement my battery would only read 9.1 volts, even after a 60 mile highway drive where the voltage monitor was showing 14.4VDC out.

Welcome. gotta post a pic of the truck for it to be true. ;)

So three days after I post in another threead that my truck must have a "unicorn" battery because the original was still going even after 5+years and 140K miles, karma reared its head. While not my first choice, circumstances lead me to get it replaced at Walmart this morning. Not the fastest...

Well, Karma bit me in the ***. Woke up this morning to a dead battery. I guess I really can’t complain. Sorry for the threadjack. OP, curious what you ended up doing.

Not around here. (Central Ohio) Every new-construction home I've looked at in the last 5-6 years, the garage is usually no deeper that 20-22 feet. I've actually measured them. It's ridiculous that they are made so small, BUT WAIT, with some builders you can opt for additional garage space at...

I can only speak from the 5'7" box perspective. Relative to a car or midsize SUV, parking will always be harder, though not difficult. I usually back in to spots because it's faster than doing the pull-in, back-up, pull back in thing that is often necessary. My truck doesn't fit in my garage...

I'm thinking I have the unicorn battery. Battery is original on my 2019 DT with 140K miles. Knock on wood. OP...I don't think it has been mentioned yet...it will take several on/off cycles and drives for all the codes to clear once your battery is replaced.
