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.

get er done, thats a hefty load, 8000 trailer and 14-15k machine?

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
