degraded performance
Bought my 2019 truck with 15k miles on it 9 months ago. Now im pushing 25k miles and ive noticed lately that I dont really have that peppy throttle performance when the truck was new to me.
Is it time to throw some injector cleaner in the tank? If so, which one is recommended?

Is it gas or diesel? I can't see any signatures.

Maybe you're just getting used to it. Throw it in sport mode see if it feels any better. You can put some Cetane Booster in it, see if it helps. I run it in both my trucks. Motorcraft PM-22-A

Lazy
My 2018 6.2 will start to feel lazy after a while, when this happens, I will disconnect the battery for about 10 minutes and it’s like a new truck all over again. I think it resets all the self learning of the transmission and engine computers.
