Not really. About once a month it might leave a quarter sized spot in the garage. I wipe it up and it is fine for another month

Man, my truck is like an alpha dog ever since I got it, seems like it marks everything. First it was a oil leak from the drain plug washer, then an oil leak from a loose valve cover, then a coolant leak, then another coolant leak from the water pump crapping out, and now an axle seal leak..... its endless.

Compared to a Class 8 big truck, none of them really leak all that bad.

I get a kick out of going to Auto Zone or any discount parts place....

You can always tell the customer parking places by the oil and goo on the pavement out front.....lol

Actually, I park mine on gravel so any leaks attribute to dust control.

between my hydraulic tank, seeping front axle seals, possible oil pan gasket, and the dip stick adapter. Mine plays the role of dominate male in walla walla Washington. Dust control, that what I use mine for too. Ha ha ha
