Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
Hey!
Brand new diesel owner. Just purchased a 2015 Laramie 4x4 Eco. 83k and has a Banks Deringer installed. It didn't come with the iBanks gauge, but I just ordered that. The recall that retards the gas mileage (forgot what it's called, AME?) has already been applied, so I am getting 23-24 mpg on the freeway. I am not towing yet....need the mule before you get the cart. So in love with it right now and would prefer to stay that way!
I have read, read, read....maybe too much to the point that I'm not even sure what I read some moments! First and foremost, I plan on keeping this truck. I don't buy every few years. I actually enjoy not having a monthly payment. First time in over a decade. So.....how do I ensure that I keep this beauty running and not breaking my bank account because I didn't do something right?
Deleting it isn't an option for me at this time. I would prefer to do this without messing around much, as I am no mechanic! I have worked on vehicles for sure, but nothing major. I change fluids, replaced starters, alternators, fuel pumps, brakes, etc. Videos are my best friend!
I would love advice on how to keep this truck running great and maybe reclaim the lost mpg if possible. Any other tips/advice on what to keep an eye on would be very helpful as well.
Thanks in advance!
