Diesel leaking

I have a 2015 f250 6.7 powerstroke and yesterday noticed a heavy diesel smell after driving. Today diesel is leaking from underneath. A consistent drip. I do have a bumper to bumper warranty on it, but not sure I should even drive it to the dealership. Thoughts? Thank you!

I'd crawl under and see if you can see where it's leaking from. It could be a fitting has come loose (I had this happen after I had one of my 6.0's bulletproofed, the tech had everything tight but it loosened up), it could be a rusted-thru line. If you can determine where it's leaking from, you COULD have it towed to the dealer if you're uncomfortable driving it (depends on how bad it's leaking, really, and where - mine was right where the fuel line entered the fuel bowl and was dangerous, thankfully I carry tools so I could tighten it back up, but if it's under the truck along the frame you'll likely be okay), and they will appreciate you being able to tell them where to look.
