logged 225 miles on this unit pulling a 3500lb empty trailer

new heat works great once 2 pairs of gloves and a hat stuffed in leaky dash vent.  otherwise no issues but hate due to lack of cruse control. 

managed to keep on dry roads and doesnt look to be salt coated after returning home on the trailer behind the 4500.

spent most of the day on this thing trying to diagnose dead petal issue. 

had Steve come over with his laptop and monitor and log the PCM.  he sees nothing in the PCM that indicates a problem with anything.  we didnt buy 100$ in credits to change anything with HP tuners. 

i did verify KAPWR (keep alive power) at the the PCM and PDC.  since once you get it happy with a sustained high speed run it goes away and then the problem returns after a key cycle immediately. 


i added in a wire to shut off traction control for next test drive but nothing on the log showed TCS pissed at all.

I love this thing!  I wish it was a club cab, it'd be a sweet camper hauler.
