    I have put 25 in mine twice and was not liking it at all as the owners manual says 26 is max.

    7/18/10 Are diesels still worth the extra money?

    I'm four + years in and 106,700 miles on the OD and I still get a chubby when I fire her up, I'm nocking down 18 mpg with just normal wear and tear, she pulls the camper like a dream and looks good doing it. Yes I'm a diesel head for ever.

    Opinion on filters

    Thanks for the replies, I have been using OEM for air and tranny up till now. I use Amsoil for the oil and oil filter. I am switching to Amsoil in the tranny and it looks like I will stay with the Ally filter. Fuel filter I'm sttill undecided.
