My 95 has grille inserts and it runs at 70 to 75 C also and i have to run it on low it blows out all kinds of heat and in surrey here its been down to about - 8 at night lately, but my truck heater is HOT.

Yes you are Right Diesel T, and the RCMP do have a blitz on maybe once or twice a year to check weights, i think i am good for 1700 Lbs in the box legally , i weighed it at one of the government scales me in it full of fuel 4 bundles of wood and my tool box in it, thats about all i take with me...
Well Diesel-T i do have my class 1 with air and have ohhhhhhhhhh 2.000.000 miles give or take , ya i got it covered but i am not sure to be honest with you if they have done that here i do think it is a great idea thou.
Well Gerald i think 30 ft would be enough i looked at a 29 with a...
Nice set up there ED,
Gerald how hot does your truck get pulling a fifth wheel do you find its tuff because of the large wind drag and have ya ever been west of Calgary with it, :)
Thanks for all the advise , but i really like fifth wheel,s maybe just have to get a smaller one maybe...
is it because the way these 6.5,s are built, just not enough torque, i used to pull a 30 footer that was a penthouse model with my 1987 2500 350 gas engine truck, slow on the hills but otherwise it worked fine, i am new to these beasts 6.5,s so its all up hill from here.

Well i am starting to look at Fifth wheel trailers, maybe head some where warm and sunny, does anyone know what weights you can haul safely with my truck, i think i got about 1800 lbs for a hitch weight i cant believe these trucks only got 8600 GVWR but so be it, the truck also has air bags...
Yes i like that sound, nothing like the sound of a turbo spooling up, i have the big exaust on mine, i know i have a muffler but will check into the soot trap thing,
