I am flying in to Philadelphia,PA to pick up my new truck on friday and then heading south to Atlanta,GA were I live, any thoughts on how I should treat her the first 1k miles on the way home.

Drive it like you own it, if in doubt read the intructions :-laf

Treat her like you love her.

intructions, what is that ?

 

[ggaudreault]

Add an S after the N , than you got instructions . And if you did know what I meant just for you try the Manual!

i was not saying anything about your spelling. i was just saying i have a bad habit of not reading instructions until something bad happens.

I gest waiting for my Truck makes me a little edgey!... . I think thats how you spell that? One think is for sure when I will bring my Dually home I will not need no intructions or manual , just a big grin in my face :d

The short of it: Don't get crazy with it the first few hundred miles, Do not use the cruise control, vary speed a lot, and don't idle more than a minute or two at a time . . . rev the motor in neutral while waiting at lights. Have fun!
