Our local Walmart is great. They keep the diesel oils in stock. Never have to hunt.

I decided to change the oil last minute. Went to get car wash stuff and had a "squirrel" moment. Story of my life. Got crazy points built up on DieselFilters. Gonna cash em in at fuel filter time.

A Georgia monsoon at that. Felt like I was driving it home in a hurricane when I left the dealer. Guess I got a good moonroof!!

I think I can top it. This last Wednesday night the town next to mine measured 3-6" of rain in 45 minutes. We had about the same. My moonroof did not leak.

Yes sir. Seem to be in the clear. Sending the PCM out for some secret squirrel bench flashing. Power added custom tunes with SOTF capability. No more bottom end lag for this guy!

Looks like ppei has some folks running around with ecm flash sotf tunes right now, feels like its been "in a month or two" for 7 months, i figured out how to cope. I get in my 6.9 and drive it for about 15 mins, get back in my 6.7 and it feels like a power house

Yep. Around 22k. Been in plenty of 6.9 and 7.3 idi's. Power definitely isn't one of their strong suits.
