doors are open. this board is for 3/4 and 1 ton diesel pickups. Ram 2500 and 3500 with the 6.7 Cummins, Super Duty F-250 through F-450 with the 6.7 Power Stroke, Silverado and Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD with the Duramax. older stuff is fine too, a 12 valve or a 7.3 owner will get the same answers as somebody with a 2025.
three boards. Diesel truck talk is the truck: cab and bed, SRW or dually, hitches, trims, hot shot setups. Engines, emissions and towing is what happens under the hood and behind the bumper: regens, sensors, block heaters, winter fuel, trailer weights. the third one, Buying and auctions, wants your invoice and the story of the first month.
who i am. tracy, Cheyenne. i spent sixteen years in a state shop keeping plow trucks and loaders running through Wyoming winters, and now i fix ag equipment out of my own building east of town. i drive a 2017 F-350 with 190,000 on it and i have opinions about block heater cords that i will share whether you ask or not.
the rule people will ask about first: no delete or tuning how-tos. if your thread is "how do i pull the DPF" or "which tune kills the EGR," it gets locked with a note. it is against federal law to take that equipment off a road truck, shops are getting fined over it, and i am not hosting it. if your truck is regenerating too often, throwing a NOx code, or eating DEF heaters, post it. that is exactly what the power board is for and there are people here who fix those for a living.
everything else is short. year, engine, transmission and SRW or dually in your first line. buying reports get the numbers in them. no classifieds, so do not try to move a truck in a reply. anybody on a dealer, lender, auction or transport payroll mentions it when it matters. new members get set up over email while the spam bots are a problem, the about page has the long version.
