    My truck sounds like an air boat

    The fan clutch in my '16 6.4 seized up in the first year. Before, it only ever kicked on during long, hot towing. Called the dealer who gave me a "its starting to get hot, its normal" speech. I refused that as an answer and got it in. They ended up replacing fan clutch under warranty.

    Thoughts on my new Power Wagon...

    The most I've ever pumped with gas light screaming at me was 28 gals. I'm sure there was a gallon or two more in the tank. I just got back from a 650 round trip camping/fly fishing trip in Arizona's largest national forest. As much time as I spent off road off the grid, I'd gas up when I went...

    Thoughts on my new Power Wagon...

    Not good for serious towing? I agree with that. But not good for serious trail running? You can't be further from the truth. What trail are you running you can't get by on a tank of gas?
