Test drove an 08 2500 CC/SB LTZthis afternoon. Nice truck, but, when did they delete the trans temp gauge? :mad:

Someone posted a while back that the new lmm feels like an LB7 w/Edge on level two. I would agree. I felt the engine wasn't any quieter than my LB7, though the inside of the cab may have been a touch quieter. But then when you are deaf like me, most of my world is quiet. :(

Gauge is now displayed thru the DIC.

Sales guy didn't know that. I also asked about how often the recommended oil change was, he stumbled on the question and came back with 5000 miles.
How close was he?

I'm just over 8000 miles and the DIC says I have 14% left on the oil filter.....

The owner's manual says change it when the DIC says to...but exactly how long you get depends on your driving style since the computer uses some formula based on rpm's, mph, miles driven, and who knows what other factors.

Yea, the "03" manual said when the DIC said to or 10K. I was always able to go the 10K and still had some % left.
