Addendum to my last post:

Just filled up on the last leg of a ~450 mile interstate round trip and noticed my DTE.

I know many factors go into this, however I don't remember ever breaking the 800 mile barrier prior to the engine rebuild. ??‍♂

I'll be honest, I'm pretty happy with these numbers.

When I bought my PB I had to have the transmission completely replaced at 5k miles. 50k miles later, she still puts a smile on my face like nothing was wrong.

I'm convinced I got a good trans tech that day. No matter how much the entire support process pissed me off, I am genuinely pleased the skilled blue collar labor guy wrenching my truck was the one person I am impressed by. I wish he got the money all the managers surrounding him got.

Anyways, that is to say....silent skilled labor guy got to your truck too. And thats ultimately the most important part.
