The shinny new truck is going in for a complete checkout in the AM. Stopped in this AM and spoke to the service manager about my list of complaints on this 6.4L diesel. Poor MPG, Black and oily exhaust, although it is no longer oily, just black, chatter and shaking when pulling under load and all over performance that is not much better than my 05 V-10. Example my V-10 with the 4:30 diff ran @ 2200rpms at 65MPH...ths 6.4 runs@ 2100RPM's at the same speed 4:10 diff..Diesel right...... He said bring it in first thing in the AM. Hope they can rectify some things or this will be the shortest time I have ever owned a truck.As of now I wasted big bucks on the diesel.
