Good to be a member. I joined up because I wanted to learn more about how to care for my 2.8 beyond the manual; it's my first diesel, so everything here as been great.
I've got a 2016 LT and I'll eclipse 20k miles before the end of the year. No major issues and I'm sure that's because nearly all those are highway. I've moved from D.C to Oklahoma, and now to Alaska in this past year--Army life.
I've got it winterized already. As I write this on 17 SEP, our weather has been pretty mild: highs in the 60s F, lows in the 30s F. I did have a few issues with cold weather starts when in OK (+15 F), but I changed the remote start to elevated idle, and never had an issue after that. I'll be sure to update when I start it in -40 F this winter.
Biggest things I'm interested in are cold weather performance, proper care for the DPF and any modifications to improve mpgs. I've never towed before and pulling snow machines and campers are next on my to do list; if anyone's got experience with that, hit me up. Much obliged everyone
