May want to consider a gas...take a look at his fuel economy tests. No those weren't towing but I still don't think the modern diesel is better for operating costs if you do "normal or less" miles per year. Screenshot_20251105_071141_YouTube.jpg ...

This went more or less according to plan.

The strap used to be held by some metal at the base of this crossmember. Now there is just a hole.

There are better videos to explain why the "Allison" 10A is problematic but this is the latest related info. Dealers must sell all Allison branded inventory by June 29, 2026, after which, they must REMOVE the Allison branding/badging. I don't think ...

I think we've needed a correction for years now. Not sure we have the conditions where it will finally be right after you make a large purchase. If anything I thought the market was stabilizing.

L5P is going to be your best bet I believe. I thought that was 2019+. EDIT: I guess it's 17+.

There is a "fuel system saver" thingy but I don't see one for the L5P. Some CP3 conversion kits require ...

Initially I thought the shock had failed internally due to the noise and clunk I could feel when I grabbed the body of the ...

Original blower resistor lost low speed. Plus there was a mouse thing in the fan causing a vibration. Removed the fan, found an acorn. Removed the resistor. Ceramic was cracked. It probably overheated because I found junk in a bypass air tube that runs near it and there was other mouse junk on top ...
