I gave up on this site before cause some guys were making me think my 08 was going to blow up as I was driving it but I am having no issues with it, am enjoying my truck very much. I do not add any chips or anything to make go faster or run any stronger, just use it as is and it is a Very good running truck.I am now back on the forum and things seem better with people that own this machine.

Welcome back. I am totally new here, owned my 6.4 for about 72 hrs now. Hope I don't have to have "fritz" answer any hard questions for me ever!!! But looking forward to learning more about my engine.

Welcome back. Don't let some who have had really bad luck spoil your fun.

As I've said, this forum is more negative than it was 3 1/2 years ago when I was looking at different trucks. If the 6.4 was that awful based on the forum consensus at that time and by doing some searches, I wouldn't have bought one.

Deletes do help the truck. Otherwise, read up on how to make your DPF run as good as it can.

Im liking my truck more and more as the list of things that I need to do before I take it out of my zip code gets shorter.


seriously...if your 08 made it this far...the gatchu's and what out for's have problally been replaced on someone else's dime.

just general diesel high pressure fuel system things that exist on all brands
