Well, after drag racing for almost 30 years and always having a 1500 with a gas engine and fighting poor gas mileage, no power and sway I finally did something I should have done a long time ago. My wife and I have been in the market for a DRW for a long time but could never find just the one priced right with all the options that we wanted. Last weekend a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD LTZ 4WD showed up at a little local dealership as a one-owner trade optioned the way we wanted. It did have 79K miles but the price was almost too good to be true. The truck is immaculate and we found out after a little investigation that we knew the original owner. After contacting him and getting our questions answered we pulled the trigger.
And this is what we tow and race:
I'm almost 50 and have never owned a diesel or a 4WD so there is going to be a learning curve for me. So far, from a little research, I've learned:
1. Use good DEF
2. Keep the fuel filter changed
3. Add Diesel Kleen to every fill up (or on a regular basis)
4. Use good oil and filter
Any other advice? I know I have much to learn and look forward to it.
