What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Good to know. Thanks!

 

No, I got it done up in PA this morning. I guess that's what I get for wanting to take off as soon as I came back from my test ride lol.

 

Chopped the rear flares/bed to match the front. Really didn’t want to chop this truck up at all but I wheel hard so fk it hahaha. Just about everything that had to be is chopped up at this point.

 

Such a good tire/wheel combo

 

One day I'll be like you boss

 

when are you going to take it off road?

 

3 year / 36000 miles

 

ive heard they have to be modified in someway?

 

are you sure? do you have them?

 

Does the tune help with MPG? Mine sucks. Around town I can’t get above 15.5?!?

 

I can't tell you just yet. From looking at the trip info, maybe a slight improvement. I was getting about 16.5 in the city before the tune, and 19.2 with some highway mixed in. By the end of today the computer was saying 20.1

 

Just changed out the oil and trans fluid at 55k. Never I repeat never let the dealer touch your truck. I just spent half a day attempting to loosen bolts tightened wayyyyyy over 30 ftlbs ‍♂️‍♂️‍♂️ they didn’t even put the small gasket on the oil filter housing.

 

Yeah the oil techs are a special kind of people.

 

I don’t think your supposed to need a massive breaker bar to remove the oil filter housing but what do I know lol

 

Agreed! Thanks! Stock off road wheels aren’t terrible at all haha

Oh well if that counts I’d love a free fix! I’m at 2 years just over 30k miles haha

 

thats why the dealer questioned that it was already worked on....good luck with that

 

It does not. At least on my truck. Although to be fair, I've got 285/75/17s a lift and 4:29s.
But to be fair again, it didn't make it any noticeably worse either. It does keep it in a slightly higher RPM range though, with 0 gear hunting so usually more RPMs = crappier MPGs.

 

Indeed.

 

However in the couple hours I've had the tune on my truck, It stays in a higher gear under load a little longer, instead of hunting around aimlessly. I'm thinking if you drive conservative, there may be a slight gain in MPG. But I wouldn't expect a big difference either way.

 

Had some fun in Moab including Fins and Things.
