  1. How cold are we talking here. I live in an area that gets pretty damn cold, and know plenty of people that get by fine without plugging in. The biggest headache is treating the fuel, and ive heard bio likes to crystalize in the cold.
  2. My current average right now is 17 mpg, best I've seen was 21 but that was hours of cruising on flat ground with cruise set at 55. Ticket is driving like you got an egg under the gas pedal. In the winter I get like 7-10 around town lol but that's excessive idling
  3. Anything made by humans will have issues, not all but some. I don't have much for miles on my 2016 2500hd cc, but so far it's been fine steering wise. And as it's been stated before, for the thousands of trucks sold, the amount with issues is a drop in the bucket. The generalization that your f250 was flawless does not mean they all were/are.
  4. They are pretty rare, I've seen two or three. From what I gather they were pricey to buy and pricey to fix so they went away fast
  5. Has anybody had the thought that maybe wax dipping is the future? You cannot stop nature from creating rust, fords trying with their beer can body's, but sorry shit decays. I had the moment when I noticed surface rust on my 56k truck, but then I realized it's surface rust, I live in the salt belt, and about the only thing I can do is what I did with my 04 and religiously wash it..in the end my 04 had mild rust, but in the 13 years of life it never looked like the titanic
  6. Drove to work, lol I'm pretty boring
  7. Banks create a symbiotic relationship, or at least try to. If they make you financially stable and you bring them more money in deposits, then they can lend your money with interest to other people. If you think all banks are trying to scam you, just keep stuffing your mattress
  8. I believe it's law that they cannot force you to use their parts/fluid..I forget the name of the act
  9. Drove to work..going on four 12 hour shifts in a row..trying to find time to put the pile of truck accessories in the basement on
  10. little over 2k miles on my 2016 from flint, and steering feels fine still. I'm just wondering if GM will actually send out a recall for this seeing as its a potential safety risk..i'm just wondering why its all from flint.
  11. Been running M1 for over a decade, my 04 had 160k on it and never used or burnt any, and was quiet as a church mouse. Switched my 2016 over to m1 at 1500 miles
  12. 2016 HD crew cab here also built in flint..i will say though i don't believe i have any issues with my steering, seems to be the same as when I bought it..then again I don't know what you guys considered really loose, I came from a truck with a rack and pinion so I guess i'm not 100% accustomed to the rotating ball feel. On a side note, I'm heading to the dealer sometime soon for some work, and I'm just wondering if I should say something, like a proactive move, like have them look at the screw on the steering box? lastly, I have empathy with all of you that have had issues, and I hope and pray I don't join you in the warranty work boat, but this is the first year with this digital assist steering..somebodys got to go through the growing pains, it just happens with everything new..imagine how many folks suffered through injectors when the dirtymax came out.
  13. I drove to work and home..hoping the weather keeps on getting warmer so i can really clean it up and put the bedliner and tonnau on.
