New truck!

This is my 5th ford diesel. I went to the other side after owning a 04 6.0. My 04 Cummins was a hell of a truck, but after seeing the 6.7 was holding its own I decided to jump back on the bandwagon. 175 miles and already has a check engine light. Hopefully it's something simple.

Wow. Really funny that karma is punishing you. A cel at under 200 miles is unbelievably rare. Did your new truck sit for a long time at the dealer?

Congratz on the new truck!!!
Double check that the fuel tank cap is tight.. These sealed systems can act funny sometimes.

I am not sure.
I called the salesman and he said as long as it's not flashing that it's probably something minor. I am having leather and the remote start added next week, so he said keep driving it till then.
It seems to be running just fine. I got 17 mpg on 1st tank.

Sharp looking truck, don't know if your like me, but when I drive mine around I kind of feel like a peacock in full bloom... "That's right, check out my truck" sad but true. Enjoy the ride.

Thanks guys.
I am not sure why, but the engine light went off today.
Hopefully they can still pull it up and see what may have caused it.
