gotcha, thanks.

Long and short, I'm about to take the '22 Eco up from Florida to North Carolina in a few days and I'm likely to encounter some much colder weather than I'm used to. Reading up, the most important thing I'll need is winter-blend Diesel to prevent gelling. Question is, are the various blends...

Hmmm, I guess I should've been reading this earlier. I was convinced the EcoDiesel was being put to trash. Glad to see it's alive and well, I'm still loving mine. I'm about 7 months in and over 11,000mi.

On a serious note, I'm waiting for that recall notice. I have a few scratches from it hitting the wall, I now park closer to the vinyl fence. I've more and more been needing to slam my tailgate just to be sure. It's opened twice while driving luckily both times in my parking lot and also I do...

heh, I was part of that discussion:

The truck was built in May, so the battery is a few months old.

Horn and blinkers went off around 11:30 pm. No apparent reason, I also just checked my security cameras, not a thing near the truck when it started. I was in bed and the keys put away. I grabbed the fob and through the window I pushed every button on the remote, attempting to stop the inferno...

It's an exaggeration to say that 5,000-9,000lb would go completely unnoticed, but having towed with N/A Gas trucks all my life, I know how much power and acceleration is going to be robbed as with the trailer attached. I also know that I'm mostly dependent on my brakes. Personally, I was...

Is this part of the fuel pump recall?

Same. I guess I chose the right time to buy and the right truck. In either case, I'll be holding onto this truck for a good long time, so there's no need for me to look at anything that's on the market right now. In 6-10 years, I'll re-evaluate my needs and what's out there. It'll probably...

A lot of the V8 Hemi guys are already complaining about the Hurricane engine, mostly because it's a 6-cylinder. I have my own personal issues about it, but I'll start with this: IT'S NEW. New meaning that it hasn't proven itself to be reliable. I'm allergic to new. You'll never see me buy...

I guess I'll be on the look out.

I did about 6,000mi in the first 2 months, I'm now about 7500mi on month 3.5. I find my MPG indicator reads about 5% higher than what I'm actually pumping. I'm actually having trouble reporting a single tank because I pump about 45-gal at a time (30+15 in the bed). It's hard to report my...

For the record, I did solve most of my issues. -Battery saver was messing up my ability to instantly connect. I created an exception in my phone's settings. -Rarely the music cuts out while playing. I think it has something to do with AA getting confused if audio is coming from my Nav app or...

There's no Wireless AA on the '21? My '22 has wireless AA, I can't imagine they just rolled it out in '22.....I dunno, maybe they did. Not that it's ever as easy as they say, but Wired connection: Wireless connection: Few tricks I learned: 1. Wired connection is going to be more reliable...

Oh, I had to throttle it back, and yes, I was on the trucker's side. I topped off at several sites, mostly because certain states had really decent diesel prices, also because I was traveling with a gasoline Silverado that needed gas much more often. One place asked for my company name and...

I visited a few of those truck stops along my drive from FL to NY and back. Holy Sh*t!!! I have my 33-gal tank, plus another 15-gal titan tank in the bed, I was done in 2 minutes flat. Far as DEF goes, I've been using the platinum blue since the start and I intend to keep using it. I only have...

With parking mode? I've lived in FL all my life, I've always had a radar detector and I started using dash cams when they started getting popular (2015). Knowing how things get while just soaking in the glass, I haven't had any issues, either. Everything would start right up as soon as I...

I still question how hot I'm willing to let an electronic device get and heat-soak. Not just quality. I'll check how hot things get this afternoon.

Yea, that's my next step. Good to know about the 2022 fix. Like I said, there are a lot of things I can't prevent, like a full vehicle theft or even someone breaking a window, but most of these thefts require time, effort, and sometimes equipment, plus they cause a scene. I'm still much more...
