    Increasing Towing/Hauling Capability?

    Good golly, that is a Huge slide in. I'm surprised they actually sell something that big, it looks like it would be unstable on the road. Good suggestions here but I'm not sure there is anything that is going to make a big difference? That is a lot a weight and a really high center of gravity. .

    I'm calling fake post here... He made the same post back in September of 23 and the truck had 39k miles back then. Appears that his odometer works in reverse? .

    Do enhancement chips really work

    If you search the web you will find plenty of bad reviews along with this "F" BBB rating... https://www.bbb.org/us/ga/columbus/profile/online-retailer/thorton-chip-tuning-inc-0743-105629 Rarely do these "chips" do anything. Custom ECM tuning is the only way to go vs these fooler chips/ .

    Cold Air Intake

    I'll reiterate, complete waste of money. The stock system is a cold air intake, flows more then enough air to support up to around 600hp and filters better. Not to mention replacing the intake and/or filter with anything other then a genuine Mopar filter is likely to throw codes on the 19+ trucks

    What is the best DEF/EGR delete kit?

    You are just grasping at straws now and have NO idea how any of this works... Nice try but I think everyone sees through your paranoia postings but feel free to continue to deep a deeper hole if you like. .

    What is the best DEF/EGR delete kit?

    The tuners I use are professionals, yes there are some hack jobs out there ( just like with everything in life) but a little research before you buy goes a long way. Once the truck is tuned you don't need that tuner to do anything, not unless you are heavily modifying the truck (adding dual...

    What is the best DEF/EGR delete kit?

    $1500 for tuning, hardware, complete exhaust to include a muffler and resonator. Was much cheaper then replacing the DPF filter and has been trouble free ever since (130k miles on tuning). Again, it's all about how you drive it after tuning.

    What is the best DEF/EGR delete kit?

    The Only "gremlins" you need to worry about is your driving habits. The #1 issue with tuning is people crank up the HP and drive it like a race car, which results in broken parts (namely transmissions). Keep the HP at a reasonable level and drive it normally and it's not an issue.

    What is the best DEF/EGR delete kit?

    What part of Colorado are you in? You need to check what the emission testing requirements are because it will not pass if you delete it. Ezlynk is the best hardware platform to use but I would Not use tuning from any of those companies you listed.

    Who to trust?

    You never gave the dealer a chance to troubleshoot it, they are not going to just go on tire plus's recommendation and swap a part (nor does the dealer know the history of the vehicle, and no they are not going to take your word on it). As far as keeping it, most all dealers are backed up so...

    question about flatbeds

    Do you know the manufacturer of the flatbed? If so call and ask them. My initial thought is No as they sell specific models for each truck .

    DEF, oil life gauge, and oil filter life gauge not working.

    With no load your DEF consumption will be minimal, also the gauge isn't linear so it will stay on full for a long time. Also, oil and fuel filters changes are 15k miles so you have barely used 10% of the life. So in short, nothing is wrong with your truck. .

    Lowering rear and getting a better ride.

    Lower your tire pressure a little when not hauling, that will help. Other then that welcome to HD trucks, they are made for hauling/towing heavy loads. If you don't really need that capability downsize to a 1/2 ton. Changing the springs is going to lower your payload to that of a 1/2 ton anyway...

    Beware of potential scammers. They are out there trolling wanted and for sale ads on all sites.

    Scammers have taken over the internet, it's easy money for them because people continue to fall for it no matter how many times you tell them. I manage a couple very popular truck and jeep pages on facebook and ban scammers by the dozens everyday but no matter how hard I try to protect people...

    6.7 cummins in limp mode

    You cannot just "reset" it. You need to scan it and see what codes it is throwing and fix them

    Gas vs Diesel

    I've always (up until brandon) been able to get diesel within a few cents (+/-) of the cheapest (85/87) gas, and certainly Always cheaper then premium. Right now it is slightly more then 85/87 and about the same as mid 89 octane gas (it varies +/- a few cents). .

    Gas vs Diesel

    Yeah, not sure what crap hole that guy lives in but up until the current administration diesel has always been the same or cheaper then gas except a few rare occasions. I've lived, traveled and worked all over this country for the past 30+ years. Also there is data to back that up, it's an easy...

    Gas vs Diesel

    Gas vs Diesel

    Where the heck are you that diesel is a dollar more a gallon than gas? My local diesel is roughly the same price as mid grade gas right now. I just filled up yesterday for $3.49 a gallon .

    198000 miles engines seized up!

    Check and see if you grid heater cable is loose at the manifold... There is no "design flaw" more likely you have something else going on. Is the truck tuned? and modifications? More information on the truck and what happened would be helpful.

    Cruise control/turbo actuator

    Cruise control itself has nothing to do with the turbo/actuator, But just about any engine/powertrain code stored in the system will prevent cruise from working. The fact that you replaced a faulty actuator (which cleared the codes) is what fixed your cruise
