1 other thing.......let's keep this thread light-hearted. Too many times a thread on truck makes turns ugly, and it has to be closed.

your right my ford can't do 65 mph because it is too busy passing everyone else on the road. the only time my F250 sees 65 mph is when I'm towing or a cop is around, otherwise it is just another number to blow past.
That said with the issues I've begun to see, I've often thought about calling my PSD "piece of s#%* diesel."
Chevy like a rock it don't roll.

If you have blue oval dna on your clothes, the Chebby folks probably won't let you near a Chebby without a disinfection procedure being performed  .

Probably so, but remember they swerved to avoid the blue oval debris that was scattered all over the road. Had no other place to go.
