Put together and installed a Patriot 16K. To say the tolerances are tight on these things is an understatement.

Took it in for it's first oil change. They put Rotella T6 4W40 synthetic and a mopar filter. Free to me...well sort of...I did spend a lot to buy the truck!

Took the new TV (2017 Nissan Titan XD) to the dealer to have them adjust the height of the WDH since the new TV is much higher than the old TV (2007 Nissan Titan).

Well, took the trailer for a little trip, and the fuel mileage was not improved. Got only 13 MPG towing at speed on the interstate. Maybe nothing can help when dragging a small house down the road at speed.

Finally got around to installing my headers, mid pipes and high flow cats on the tundra. Feels great driving around be interested to see how it works while towing and how fuel mileage is affected. Put a lot of thought into making sure the sound would be mellow when towing.

I did an oil change +2 oil filters, 3 fuel filters and the spin on trans filter. Then I took it into the tire shop for a wheel alignment.

What did you do to your Tow Vehicle today?

Luckily Texas doesn't do emissions testing on diesels now, so deleting excess equipment is not a problem but it will really be nice to do away the the inspections all together

Picked up a cabin air filter "kit" from Geno's Garage. It's really just a cabin air filter and a door. MANY Ram trucks were not optioned with cabin air filter. In the air box, behind the glove box, there is a molded area where the little cover fits, but you have to cut the hole yourself to be able to insert the filter. So I loaded up a sharp blade in my utility knife and went to work. It wasn't easy, but it wasn't that hard. Would've been easier with a hot knife, but I didn't have one and didn't want to buy one.

I cut the hole and installed the filter and cover in my driveway while my son rode his bike around. Hopefully this will help with dust and odors in my truck (LOTS of dust from driving around the deer lease), and hopefully keep the condenser clean and happy.

HIGHLY recommended for anyone with a Ram truck that was not optioned with cabin air filter.
