My Little Red Corvette **SOLD** :: 2016 Ford Transit 350HD HR Ext Diesel (2017-03-23 07:52:57)

Folks, I have always had a gas truck to tow my RVs. Now I have a GMC 3500 deise, and a newer rig. I took my first trip out this past July, towing my RV with my GMC. Was on the I- state from Omaha, heading back to the Denver area Getting low on fuel (Diesel), I turned into a gas plaza, you...

I want to increase my alternator from the current 180 amps to 220 amps. Will this just be a plug and play situation or will other things need to happen, i.e. reflash the computer or increase the wiring harness size?

I change my oil at 250 hours, but, get this...my friend just told me he has changed his at 800-1000 hours since he got the unit. 2001 Unit. 7,800 hours on the generator and running perfect still. He is 100% remote when he goes out, so he will run it for a week at a time without turning it...

Well, someone had to say something. It might as well be me. At some point we’ll be moving these gentle giants down the road. The cancer has delayed our trips until June. I’ve got 100 gallons of three dollar go juice in the tank. We’ve been averaging 10.1 MPG so we’re good for a little less...

My local Fire Department recently sent out a "We're doing a great job" mailing that they often do when softening up the community prior to a Levy Election. In this mailing they told how they were replacing their ambulances with gasoline powered vehicles "to reduce the exposure of employees to...

Let's say 2010 and later, what is the most reliable and powerful diesel engine you can get in a pickup? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think towing comes down to 3 things: 1. Torque rating at the wheels. (Manufacturer numbers are at the crank. So your looking for as little drivetrain loss as...

:confused: Has the recent run up in fuel cost impacted your plans? :confused: It has mine. We were going to do a cross country tour this Spring/Summer but now I'm not so sure. Maybe still go but not tow the Jeep to reduce cost a bit. I'm a V-10 gasser, not a diesel pusher so it matters.

Well just a follow up after measuring checking for studs and tubing in the wall the places I want to install heater has problems the places I can install I don't want it there, so I have given up on the idea. Thanks to all of you that have replied and ideas I kind of wish it would fit where I...

Hey everyone, loooong time lurker but first time poster. I have been coming here for years for advice and answers to questions. Y'all are awesome. Recently switched from gas to a diesel 2500 HD and wanted to share my experience to see if I'm just delusional or if maybe I "just met my hero"...

Hello. My wife and I currently own a 2318G popup that we tow with a 5.7L Durango. My wife would like me to buy a truck as she feels it's more suited as a camping vehicle (the Durango is her car and she likes to keep in in mint condition :rolleyes: ). Personally, I don't care much for full...

Based on recommendations by a MB Sprinter Service expert, I change oil every 10k because I am frequently forced to fill up with B20 diesel. While the B20 diesel use can be addressed with more frequent oil changes (it causes oil contamination more rapidly than B5), I wondered what Cummins Onan...

I know it's illegal (and dangerous) to fill gas cans in the bed of a pickup, but what about diesel? I am currently limited to lifting no more than 20 lbs due to a recent surgery, and I'm wondering if I can safely (and legally) fill an 8 gallon plastic diesel container in the bed of my pickup...

Stopped near a Bucee’s for the first time near Warner Robins Ga. Took the tow to back track a few miles and checked it out. Maybe this question has been answered elsewhere but I can’t find it. Bucee’s diesel price is so low compared to other places that I wonder about the grade. Is it #2 or...

About a month ago, I bought a slightly uses 2021 Silverado 2500HD diesel. 2 of the monitors are showing as incomplete, catalyst and O2 heater. I've called the dealer and read online about what driving pattern is needed to complete these monitors but nothing has worked. My truck won't pass...

Hi Everyone. Hope you all are keeping safe and warm! I have put my tow vehicle in storage mode in the outside. Minus 20's coming up for the next week or more. The GMC Diesel 2500 has two batteries. My question is: Is plugging a trickle charger into the DC port in the cab sufficient to keep the...

Curious to know is one of these diesels more costly and/or time consuming to operate, service, durability, etc. Initial cost not being an issue. Are there any other obvious benefits, technically, mechanically, or just from a comfort/enjoyment perspective, between the two. Talking just about...

I have had a Forester 2401T on order with deposit since early July and today I got a call from dealer saying diesel generator no longer available and we need to switch to LP. LP is a no go for us as we will be going to college track meets for the next 6 years with our dog and are there from...

Isada 5 30FW: Anyone else notice that their fuel cap does not thread to the filler neck properly? I looked closely, and mine clearly is the wrong cap for the filler neck. It seems like it’s threading on, but it never actually seals. Almost like it’s cross-threaded. Ron

We have a Minilite 2506S - about 6000lbs loaded - that we have been towing with a 2018 Tahoe with max trailering package & Propride hitch. We have had some reliability issues with the Tahoe and we really don't need all that cabin space so I am now considering trade in for a truck. Considering...

2005 Dodge Ram SLT 2500 Cummins diesel 4x4 quad cab 2014 Four Wheel Campers Hawk slide-in. $47,000 for the unit I'd like to sell as a unit, but am receptive to selling the truck/camper separately. The camper and truck each are in very good condition, are exceptionally clean, and meticulously...

Going to pull the trigger and get a new truck. Always been a Ram person and currently have a 2014 3500, non dually, gas. Been a great truck and pulls the 36.6 Flagstaff fine on flat land. It does struggle on hills with only 61+ on it. The new one will be a 3500 dually. Leaning toward the...

Just returned from a trip to NY from Georgia and traveled through PA. Diesel prices in PA were anywhere from $3.68 to $4.00 a gallon. The prices in the surrounding states were anywhere from $3.06 to $3.25 in Maryland, West Virginia, New York. I would advise if you need fuel stop before...

Anyone have any info on the availability of Diesel Fuel on this route...?:crying::crying:
