Well after owning all gas vehicles I finally bought my first diesel. So far this seems to be great. So I guess i'll let the questions start rolling.


Will my fuel mileage get better as the engine starts to break in?


What r some of the pro's and con's of running a str8 exhaust.


Who makes a good cold air filter kit for this engine.


Any cheap DIY mods I can do to this w/o messing with the factoy warr.


I was reading somthing about greasing all the zerk fittings under the truck asap because the factory doesnt do a suffecient job.


Any tips for the newbie diesel owner would be greatly appreciated....





Thank You,


Brian
