Hope this helps............

I have the same tires on my truck. I bought it used and the OE tires were toast so I said I wanted the DT's as part of the deal.

Give those Generals about 500 miles to break in, some tires do require a break in period, especially an all terrain tire.

You can't go wrong with the pressure printed right on the sidewall of the tire.
That's what the tire mfgr built the tire to run at.

Ask Ford about that and the rollovers they had with the Explorer.....

His sig says:

"2014 F350 Lariat crew cab chrome pkg. Loaded with tools weighs in at 11,100lbs. I have installed stable loads to raise up the back end, Bilstein shocks. I need to install my 12v compressor and air horns. I also plan on a Flo-pro exhaust system with delete and SCT X4 tuner in the spring."

He is the OP.

Thanks - I missed that....

Hopefully the dealer could see his way clear to get you a 2015 Turbo upgrade since they are still in production!

Yeah my truck is in the first picture of this thread. I will try to figure out how to post a picture again, it's been a while. I have a picture of the truck loaded up on the roll back. For now I will let Ford pay for a new turbo but maybe later this year I will go to the '15 upgrade. I have a couple of long trips planned for this year so I need reliability.

Hi dualwheels66,

I know it's frustrating to have to wait on parts. Let's see what I can do to help out. PM me your information and I'll start researching options. I'll need your full name, best daytime phone number, VIN, current mileage, and servicing dealership.

Crystal

It's frustrating because they knew it was bad last Thursday and probably waited to confirm even though the mechanic knew it was bad and told the Service advisor. If the turbos have been back ordered for a while then my apologies. It's also frustrating to have to beg for a loaner or rental. When your car/truck breaks down while under any kind of warranty, a rental should be provided. Fortunately this time I am on a big job that's only 3 miles down the road from the dealer and I can keep my tools in the job box. However I leave for Vermont next week and the truck has to be done.
