:lol:

It ain't so bad. Just rolled 8K miles, and that is the 2nd time I had to add.

Trying to figure out the actual range of the stuff. I was dragging an equipment trailer with 2 Bobcats, getting about 10 MPG for 300 miles. I swear it uses less when loaded.

Love the truck more and more. I think she is broke in, now. 8000 mile average is 13.9 MPG though a very broad range of driving.

As far as emissions go, for the most part, the LML is pretty damed good. It's not hard on the DEF at all. It might actually make 10k miles, when it's right full up.

Using less when loaded makes sense... There's more than enough heat in the exhaust system to burn off everything... That's why there's like 4 or 5 sensors to disconnect when you delete.

A delete isn't really _needed_ with these trucks... But it's damned nice [emoji38]

I gained 2MPG empty, on my daily work run... And I run it a little harder than I did before the delete.

0 - 60 is 6.2 seconds... I need new tires and a lift pump to get any faster.

Installed Homelink into the overhead console on the Fronty. Tapped it into a power source only powered with the ignition (rear view mirror) for a little extra security. Pretty happy with how it turned out, color matches really good, just the plastic is a different texture. Pretty simple install.

It's not heaven . . . it's Iowa!
Had a TPMS replaced and the front sway-bar ends repaired. Was gonna do them myself but hadn't gotten around to it when the TPMS error popped up. Worked out nicely :D

Heading to hook up a mobile office trailer with it. 28 feet long and they claim it weighs 19000 pounds. This should be interesting.

I will get pics. :D2
