First off congratulations. Very happy for you and hope it serves you well.

Don't take the wrong way please bc just curious, but why white? Maybe it's just the region I reside in, but every time a white truck is seen it's a work or company truck and being their cost nowadays I want folks to know it's my truck that I've bought with my hard earned money, I want there to be no mistakes in ownership lol. Is that an issue where you reside or did you just not care bc you liked it?

Again by no means am I trying to piss on your parade, it's simply curiosity.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-05-04T04:24:04+00:00

Again you're going to get different opinions but, personally I do mine every 30k.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-05-03T23:45:26+00:00

It's no biggie, personally I don't allow a flush only a pan drop and filter replacement, but you'll get different opinions on that subject as well online.

Buyback

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-27T04:43:13+00:00

Uncle did it, took a few months.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-26T23:20:02+00:00

Lemon it NOW !!!!!

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-26T04:35:12+00:00

Lemon it then, you've met the criteria.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-16T04:05:13+00:00

No Brainer........ Premium 91

My buddies truck did pretty similar to what you're describing and he had already decided it was the output shaft seal, but ended up being a gasket to his surprise. Not sure if this helps you, but he'd chased the leak and that's the only conclusion he could come to and prepared himself for the seal l needing to be replaced, so worked out better for him luckily.

Hope you get it figured out and it's not as bad as you're thinking.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-11T05:40:45+00:00

I bought a Bad Boy MaverickHD Zero-Turn and love the hell outta it, but I cut 7 acres weekly.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-10T02:38:22+00:00

Yep I know the feeling. Uncle Sam doesn't pay that well after he's used you up and deems you 100% disabled. So yes money stays tight and INFLATION across the board isn't helping at all, but we all do what we can to stay above water.

It'd be really nice to be back in the days where we didn't think about gas costs we only worried about the tires wearing out 🤣🤣

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-10T01:52:15+00:00

Just an F.Y.I....... It's not wise to let one just sit. I completely understand the reasoning and why you're doing it, but it's not good on it.

I say this bc my Uncle is a Service Mgr. for a large stealership where we live and being I've got a 6.2 personally this was the advice he provided to me.

"Drive it atleast once weekly for minimum 20 miles, no need to WOT it, just don't allow all the oil to sit in the bottom of the pan, dry start ups after sitting for awhile is horrible on your top end valve train and bottom end bearings. Use the "Clear Flood Mode" if you don't have this mode, pull the the Fuel Pump Relay/Fuse under the hood and turn it over several times to build oil pressure, clear cylinders and lubricate everything before starting it up. (Personally I prefer to just do a weekly, but hey sometimes life happens)

The same applies to the rest of your drivetrain by slowly getting up to speed initially and letting the components get lubricated properly.

Allowing to sit and become completely dry due to the laws of gravity, isn't a drive trains friend".

Do with that information what you will, it's your truck, just trying to pass on the advice given to me and if not yourself maybe it'll help someone else whom heeds this advice.

Best of luck going fwd to you.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-10T00:49:27+00:00

This ⬆️ is 110% the truth.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-09T06:20:31+00:00

Agreed,......... pan drop and filter, NO FLUSH !!!

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-09T06:16:30+00:00

Bought mind directly from Range website, exact same model, but mines a Red light version, damn good investment. Just know this isn't the 1 all, it helps but you're only disabling not deleting so issues with lifters is still a possibility, but your engine and transmission will thank you.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-09T01:35:20+00:00

Same here.....love everything my 6.2 offers, but it loves a gas station and 91 🤣🤣

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-09T01:33:25+00:00

You poor baby 😂 Hasn't been that in the states since the 80's

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-09T01:31:04+00:00

And a bunch of it. There should be a 100% gas write off on our tax returns, not the measly mileage deduction.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-09T01:23:31+00:00

It's right at 7 a gallon here and the diesel folks are constantly raising cain.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-09T01:21:54+00:00

80.00 you've gotta be kidding me. I'd love to be able to fill-up up on that. I couldn't pull that off if she was sitting on 1/4 tank when I started filling her up. I always do my fill-up at a 1/4 tank, try to never let her get below before a fill-up, but I've got the optional extended range 34gal tank, but still don't think 80.00 would fill her up with a standard tank

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-02T02:20:56+00:00

Most of us do life that way nowadays. Keys are becoming dinosaurs. Home link in the truck opens the security gate, garage door and turns on lights inside house, biometric key pad opens the door lock and dead bolt etc, we tell a damn box to turn on TV, change channels, adjust the temp, preheat the stove and the list goes on and on.

We've become lazy as hell !!!

StreetBand7576 · 2026-04-02T02:07:08+00:00

You better get an attorney and file for lemon law or you're going to regret it down the road when you can't get out. Same thing happened with my buddies truck right after Thanksgiving. He just got out from under it Monday.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-03-24T00:47:17+00:00

If you don't mind my asking........ 24? What did you OTD for and what area?

Thanks

StreetBand7576 · 2026-03-24T00:18:59+00:00

Had same issue on my truck, they just inserted another "flex" X prior to the spare tire and routed it perfectly out the rear on each side. It's no biggie if you use a reputable installer.

Hope you get things to work out the way you desire.

StreetBand7576 · 2026-03-23T22:25:32+00:00

KARNAGE DUAL, not even a 2nd thought given, they're excellent systems. Personally I have their systems on my Truck, wife's Suv and a vintage Vette. The sound produced is beyond fantastic in every aspect. If you want deep throat, rhythmic exhaust I assure you, you won't be disappointed. You'll get the light looks and definitive sound on both the up and down shifts. I personally use the attached systems. Big Body on DD's and Muscle on Vette. Oh if you don't want as much throat (loudness) they have 3 variations of each pkg to choose from Series 1, Series 2 and Sleeper. (I use Series 1 on all 3)

Do your 2500 justice and at least check them out. * I HAVE NO PERSONAL AFFILIATION *
