Been too long since I've read all of the responses to recall if this was mentioned, but there is another 'thing' I hate and that's the people that sweep the 6.7 into the same generalizations as the problem children such as the 6.0 and 6.4 powered trucks. Yes, I know, there are 'perfect' versions of those earlier diesels, but mostly after a $$ bulletproofing project.

It may have been posted earlier, but I hate having to crawl under the truck to open the water drain port on the fuel filter / water separator sump.. My old 84 F250 with 6.9 had a pull ring on the firewall that you lifted up to drain the water off.. Now THAT was an engineering job that I would have bought beers for....

Randy - just think of all the interesting things you can see while "down under" --- and not always truck parts.
Which reminds me of a task I need to do when the temp goes above 32*F later today

Not being able to truly monitor the truck. The oil and trans temp helps but really? Why no exhaust gas temps reading? At this point, why can't I select which temps i want to watch?
The Nav voice system is the worse.
Why no usb power points in the back seats?

My Fuel Mileage is what I hate the most out of my truck. When bought brand new was receiving 18-19 mpg and now with 55 K miles receiving 14-15.5 mpg. When towing getting 6.8 to 7.6 mpg. Second thing I hate is truck going into limp mode (Gear Wrench Light coming on) and all was coming from Transmission.
