GM has a similar special coverage for some Duramax DEF reservoirs.

Knock on wood, no issues yet with my 2018 L5P DMax.

One of the biggest scams of DEF is what it’s made of. Literally pee and distilled water. That’s it. So I guess if you can distill water on your own and pee in it, you’ll always have a supply of DEF on hand. Lol

Oh, and that pee part I mentioned…urea, which breaks down into ammoniacal nitrogen is starting to kill or brown the vegetation on the sides of highways from all the semi truck exhaust exposure. SMH.

I keep the Bronco on a battery tender, nothing worse than a dead battery when I want to take a cruise.

A buddy gave me a spare 2019 Lariat and she really likes the way it drives. I can really see the difference between it and my 2015. Now the Jeep is starting again.

Jeep not starting again. Gotta be an electrical gremlin in there somewhere. Oh well, on this day I get in the borrowed buddy's P/U, head down I10 to turn left at Segovia.

Could be a real gremlin as in rat or squirrel chewing wires. Hope not but it happens.

It's turning. The dealership set me up with a brand spanking new F150. Sweet and can't complain. I was leaving the parking lot of the dealership when the Jeep mechanic called and let me know it was already repaired. Same days service - wowsers! The gremlin turned out to be a short in the fuse box assembly.

'Glad the fleet is coming back online. up One son-in-law from out of state is driving my 4Runner all over the state this week with my youngest and their 2 babies in it. He's one of the worst drivers I've ever seen. eek
We're keeping the babies overnight Saturday while they go to a wedding. Exciting and exhausting at the same time.

Just got off the phone with the dealership. Ford has indicated the shipment expected for 05/23 has been delayed and now, there is no ETA.

It’s good thing you don’t need to tow every day.
