Don't know. While ours was 3 years used and had whatever big bugs worked out, I've seen too many quality issues with newer ones. That said, EVERY brand has the same problem. I'd have to very...

I quit using Tow/Haul except in extreme situations because of this issue. Regular mode works just fine for most roads - and gets a lot better mileage too.

I use GasBuddy religiously so I know how far the next diesel stop is and where to find best prices. Also seldom go more than 150 miles between stops anyway - dogs and old people need those comfort...
