Speaking of dismal mileage, anyone see the new little fuel mileage brochure going out with the new s/duties? It is classic. It starts off with what DIC lights do not require a trip to the dealer. Apparently dealers are being overwhelmed with trucks coming back from the DIC lights being on. Then it goes into some very high-tech info on how to save fuel. Did you know that keeping your tires properly inflated can save you fuel? Not to let the truck idle can save fuel, too. Using synthetic oil offers a small fuel savings, as does not running the a/c if not needed. And a dirty air filter can reduce fuel mileage. It didn't mention anything about the filter being clogged with snow, strangely enough. A buddy of mine who owns a garden center just got an 08, and he stopped at my place last nite and showed me the truck and this little book. The truck has an owners manual, a diesel supplement, a DVD on features, and a doo-hickey to "save" tire pressures to the TPMS. Also some other papers about how the anti-lock brakes work. I can actually see how if this was your first diesel you would be left scratching your head. Back on track: the 3:55's aren't going to help if you have something to tow.
