Thanks everyone! I've been driving her a lot, tomorrow is the first tow with it, with a couple 8% grade hills I'll have a detailed report on how the exhaust brake worked out. Just a few things to report. fuel mileage is still climbing, it really came up after I hit 200 miles. I know I said it before but the tranny is sooooo smooth shifting, besides the power delivery with the new turbo I'd say this is the second best thing they changed compared to my '11. B&W turnover ball gooseneck hitch fits right in with no problem as do the air lifter air bags. Quick question- right above the drivers head by the sun visor there is a little plastic vent looking thingy, anyone know what it's for?

If it is around an inch long it is the MIC for the radio/commabds you can speak or hands free phone when you Bluetooth.
