    6.0-6.7, a little disappointed in towing milage

    Well, topic says it. In my 06 in sig, I averaged about 12-13 mpg pulling our 13k 5er, the 6.7l did fine as far as power and handling, but I was disappointed that I only got 8.9 mpg. Is this normal? Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

    Prep prior to first big trip

    Well, having to take an un-planned trip down to St. Petersburg (about 8 hrs) for a memorial service in a few weeks. Is there anything I should triple check, or mods necessary before voyage? I've read some on the cold side IC pipe, is this an issue at factory power levels at 56k miles? Tires are...

    2017 Grill options

    I've seen where people swap out to the platinum, but I've just never really been a fan of the two horizontal bars. (Don't hate em by any means either). Was wondering if anybody makes one similar to the 2020 dually grill, but fits a 17, that way lights and all don't have to be swapped. Not a fan...

    Kc S300 63/68 or 63/73

    Running a 2002 F250 as a dedicated tow rig, just exploded the billet wheel in my 38r. Was never really completely satisfied with that Turbo, although it was a significant upgrade over stock. So what are yawls opinionWhy or why wouldn't you get the bigger or smaller turbine wheel. Truck has...

    Instant crank uphill

    As title states, my truck instantly cold cranks when parked facing up hill. I bought this truck a little over a year ago, and have had what I call a long crank when cold (summer or winter) @ about 3-5 seconds, usually about after at least 4hrs since it's been running. When hot or warm, it...

    AC cold at idle, but not while moving

    AC is ice cold when at idle, but not during driving. Had it completely go out a few weeks ago, I checked clutch, removed a shim, clearance is good. Took it to local dealer, it was low on freon, they evacuated and refilled with die, also found that the orifice tune was completely full of trash...

    White rain vs. Looney wild

    So on the truck I just bough, it has Looney wild, Looney wild PM, and White rain. Not really sure I can tell the difference between the two Looney files, but huge difference from Looney wild to White Rain. Looney wild is pretty smooth, quiet, and refined, and stockish unless you really get on...

    Towing with a 6.0

    Definitely an improvement from a similar modded 7.3l. Now, with 7.3l I could tow an any tune as long as egts were kept in check, assuming this is the same for 6.0l especially since I now have a tow haul mode to take care of shifting no matter the tune, is this correct? Sent from my VS985 4G...

    Question about 15 transmission

    I seem to remember reading somewhere where the 15 350 drw and 450 had beefeier trans parts, is this true, and if so is this just they didn't subtract the clutches everyone talks about? Just wanna be comfortable with what truck I get, I definitely like the leather upgrade in the KR, and the...
