I noticed the oil viscosity chart endorsing the use of 5W-40 oil at every temperature 15W-40 is and more.

I noticed the drain valve for the water in fuel drainage system, I thought it was pretty cool..just flip the switch, it drains, then close the switch and restart.

Why not an oil life monitoring system or computer like Honda puts in their vehicles?

Seems to leave you guessing when to oil change between the 5,000 or 10,000 mile intervals. (Guess you have to keep records about what and when you towed since the last change or if you have driven a lot in town or in stop and go traffic.)

The truck that I worked on at 6.4 class, the exhaust was a little larger not so much for performance, as it was for heat dissipation.
