    2018 F250 Def tank size doesn't seem to match

    I recently purchased a 2018 F250 Powerstroke. According to the manual listing, my DEF tank has a capacity of 7.4 gallons. Yet when my gauge says I'm half full and I add a jug (2.5 gallons), it now reads full. Is there some sort of hidden reserve or did they change tank sizes mid-year or what?

    I took my 2016 F250 to the dealer and asked them to diagnose a clunk or tink sound that occurs when I place the truck in drive and reverse and sometimes while starting from a complete stop. The transmission mechanic said its not the transmission and the sound is nothing to be concerned about...

    I have a stock 2015 F250 with no upper overload spring. Apparently, for the 2015 year anyway, the upper spring came only with the camper package. All mine has is the common leaf bundle.

    WDH F250 GEO PRO 20ft

    I gotta ask? The F250 has built in sway control, brake controller more than enough tow range for a Geo Pro 20fbs. We pull a 19 foot Two horse trailer with front end storage no problems and a 4wheel Hawk in the bed. Why will I need a WDH for the GEO PRO? it just seem overkill for a 20 foot TT...
