Ok how many here have 0 problems with eco D

almost everything is not compatible because they never had the truck to test it … but most stuff fits just have to do slight modifications… like the bumper you just addjust the mounting locations 1 inch and 3/4 higher and it will match body lines … as for the cooler. you have like 3- 4 inchs of space
 
Zero issues here.

It drives like a gasser even with the 3.21 rear end and looking back on it I still would still go with the 3.21 rear end.

It drives like a gasoline engine with no delay when I punch the throttle.

I’m not going to win any drag races but at my age who cares.

If I’m running errands and it’s a quick hop into the store for milk or picking up dry cleaning, etc I almost never turn it off and just endure the three horn honks to avoid the start / stop cycle.

Once back at home I let it idle at least a minute to cool down the turbo before shutting it down.
 
My two cents - owned a 2014 Outdoorsman - bought at 40K traded at 95K, was having DEF and exhaust manifold issues that were about to escape the end of the extended warranty with no probable expectation that they wouldn't be back. Drove the truck to about 55K as the second owner. Had strong indications that the DEF systems was about to need a full replacement. Dealer basically said any further repairs would out of pocket.

2020 BigHorn - just traded it today with 94K on it. Replaced one set of tires, did the alignment twice (once at the tire change, and again when a tire was destroyed under road hazard), and the 8K-10K oil changes to get to today. Original brakes, very few rattles, just couldn't kill this one.
 
My 2021 Ecodiesel Limited 4x4 has 75k miles on it. Has not had one issue but I do plan to get rid of it before the 100k powertrain warranty runs out.
 
I have 90k miles on 2020 eco diesel. Other than the recalls, I've had zero issues. Love the truck
 
Have any other EcoDiesel owners seen this on their intercooler tubing? Mine is a Gen 3, 2020, less than 15k miles, babied since new, only drive it on long trips or to haul a load, no short-tripping with it. I do on occasion use the block heater for a few hours before I crank it up on cold mornings.

Any insights or shared experiences appreciated.

My 2022 Laramie Ecodiesel has 38k miles, and is my every day driver. It has been one of the most reliable vehicles I've ever owned(I'm old and have had a LOT of cars and trucks). The only time it made me nervous was the check engine light came on once when I had been procrastinating about getting under it to change the fuel filter for about a year. Took the requisite 5 minutes to change it, and no more lights. I do take it to the dealer for oil changes, but I do all the rest of the filters myself.

'22 Big Horn with 27K miles. No issues to report, although it has gone in for the HPFP recall. There appears to be an ABS or braking system controller software update required, as part of a recent recall. Haven't had it scheduled yet.

Other than that, runs and drives great.
 
2022 Rebel with 3.92. I just hit 93K and the only issue I had was 1 glow plug burnt out. It's been the most reliable car or truck I have ever owned. I would buy another one if they still sold em new
 
I bought my 2022 eco because my 2014 eco had 292,000 KMs on it and I was worried at some point it might give up the ghost.
I do credit GDE since it was tunes really early in its life.

The only problem I had with my 2014 was tranny went,(Might be because I used to tow a tandem dump trailer full of yards full of rocks. 20,000 GVW type ****t.
Best truck i ever owned was my 2014 eco..
 
2020 Limited with 3.92 diff and ~60,000 miles . Run it in 4wd auto and aero mode 99.99% time, use EDT each tank fill up. No engine or transmission issues but did have the HPFP work done as per recall (no HPFP issues). Have had a couple minor interior items, leather dash delam, sun visor hinge broke, but all in all, it has been super reliable and a joy to drive. Wish they had kept it in the lineup.
