    0-40 PUP Oil

    I started using the High Mileage version when I had my E350. Ran better than with any others oil I used in a gas engine. I ran it in my Tinder and now this 1500.

    What did you do with your 5th Gen this week?

    Picked it up from the dealer today with a new gas tank installed. I stopped to get gas and it worked perfect. It looks as though it has a new filler tube as well, though its not on the paper work.

    1500 vs 2500 for towing travel trailer (downhill)
