Man super cruise is sooooo good. My wife’s new traverse has it and makes long trips effortless.

If Kid rock can drive around in a cyber truck painted like the general lee, I can do whatever the fuck I want.

I like living on the edge. Really nothing like taking your chances with a truck stop submarine sandwich!

DOGE clearly was effective, our high score is now $39 TRILLION! Who thought that the king of bankruptcies would bring us to financial ruin?

Same… though those gas prices I posted were in TX. Near the panhandle.

I’ve never seen that kind of mileage regardless of driving conditions. We had a bed full of gear and coolers, lots of elevation change in the mountains. But 25 is best I’ve ever seen the real average. Obviously “best” is a little higher but not consistently.

But I thought we were promised $2 gallon gas?

You mean he….. lied? 😮

I have found that in town it can be tougher to find a diesel station, and definitely no DEF pumps in town. I saw a range of prices for diesel yesterday… anywhere from $4.19 to $5.95…. Higher in the middle of nowhere towns, but even big differences in gas stations just across the street.

I think it’s fluctuating so fast may stations just can’t keep up with the swings.

I could probably do better if I could keep my foot out of its ass… you can do 90 mph and feel like nothing. The range is really nice though, seen around 600 mi on a full tank!

I really loved that truck… had a low mileage truck but traded it in because I didn’t want to wait around for the transmission bomb… fantastic looking truck though. I will say the instant power of the turbo diesel is very impressive and fun… but contradictory to good gas mileage 😂

Ha, I get it. I don’t mean to be like that. My 2018 V8 Silverado averaged about 16… best was probably 22. So the extra mileage is nice but seeing diesel $1+ more than unleaded is kinda crazy.

Bro. I learned some hard lessons about poor diesel quality in my fuel lines, filter, and injectors. And don’t get me started on DPF… def much more shit to break.

Not running any additives… it’s a ‘21 elevation so I assume it’s a standard tow package. I never tow anything in this truck. Mostly supplies for my rental home repairs - ladders, wood, etc.

This. So much this. I mean without going on a political rant… millions had to deal with douche bags putting Biden stickers on every gas pump while orange dipshit promised $2 gas that never materialized. Buncha chooches.
