    Road Armor bumper, everything running hot.

    The opening for where a winch could go is 2"x8" I could easily open it up to 6"x22" Might be cool to install a couple hinges and install 12 volt actuator to open it up when it gets hot.

    Road Armor bumper, everything running hot.

    Anyone else install a Road Armor bumper and find that the truck runs much hotter? Coolant and transmission seems to be running much hotter when towing. I am thinking about opening up the center section where a winch could go.

    Very Close Call / Head-On / DVR???

    Last week I came very close to being hit head on by a drunk driver that tried to pass a propane tanker by coming head-on with me in my lane at an estimated 60-70 mph on a posted 25 mph road. He just missed me, tagged the tanker and ended up well off of the road and took off on foot...

    Exhaust Brake - trouble, VERY FRUSTRATED

    It is not elevation related. If it is ambient temperature related, the dealer reset or fixed it last October and it has been fine since.

    Exhaust Brake - trouble, VERY FRUSTRATED

    So after the third time the dealer had it, it was fixed. They told me that they didn't do anything to it. (Interesting) I would not want to have to admit that it took me 3 times to get it right either. So for the past 7 months, it has been working great. Yesterday it started again...

    Exhaust Brake - trouble, VERY FRUSTRATED

    I aired the tires back up to eliminate that. If leveling it were the problem, I would think this would be a much more wide spread problem, but I will do that next if I can not figure anything else out.

    Exhaust Brake - trouble, VERY FRUSTRATED

    I don't, that is why I was wondering if anyone had any experience, trouble or knowledge that might be of help. When you get a chance, could you take one for a quick ride and log it for me to compare? The dealer has been less then helpful and tells me the truck is operating as designed.

    Exhaust Brake - trouble, VERY FRUSTRATED

    The dealer has seen the truck 3 times for this now problem and tells me that it is throwing no codes, is working correctly and has driven their landscapers identical truck and it drives just like my truck.

    Exhaust Brake - trouble, VERY FRUSTRATED

    Truck has 6 turns on the torsion bars and I dropped the rear tire pressure to about 60 PSI. Other than that it is completely stock.

    Exhaust Brake - trouble, VERY FRUSTRATED

    I have a 2013 3500 Duramax. I usually drive with the exhaust brake activated and in tow/haul mode when around town. For the first 4500 miles, any time I took my foot off of the accelerator, the exhaust brake would aggressively activate and begin slowing the truck even when going down a 9%...
