DVD Finally Arrived

First post here. Been reading a lot, but I wanted to let everyone know I finally received the DVD that taught me how to drive the 6.7. I feel so much smarter now. Anyone else get a kick out of it?

Just got one yesterday in the mail. Almost a year after my purchase date!! Haven't got to view it yet, wonder if it will tell me something I don't know after being a DC 6.7L lab rat for almost a year and 110k miles.

Didn't say much at all other than the best part was how to get better fuel mileage........"Don't idle your truck"

Shade tree mechanic , Knows what he's talking about ,but,it is still b.s. to have to waste your fuel to drive 45 min.s at 50+mph to get a proper regen......I guess I have been lucky as I have had no problems yet in 2200 miles........hopefully wont have any ..........dvd just tells you what you already knew if you been on these forums for any length of time at all......it is just chrysler covering their edit.

I just got mine yesterday but have not seen it yet. Hey GMScott how do you get 110K miles on your truck in less than a year? Hot Shot maybe? And how has yours been? I've had mine since April and it been great with 2 flashes and a recall.

I have decided to NOT drive my truck until I fully watch that DVD. I didn't know I had been doing it wrong for the last year. Save Fuel = Don't Idle? How about turn your truck off when going down hill = save fuel? How about drive the wife's car = save fuel?

113k miles on the clock towing whatever I can. Besides the initial EGR problems it's been pretty much maintenance all the way. ( that's me knocking on WOOD to prevent any jinxing) Oil, oil filter, air filter & fuel filter all done on a 10k mile interval. Had a couple flashes, although I don't think I got the latest yet, and the O2 recall. Been thru 1 set of tires and replaced the shocks. LUV the truck, great improvement over the 04.5 in many ways - HATE the fuel mileage.

Found mine on the table yesterday.

My wife got it out of the mail, and I did not know it was here. I put it in for my 2yr old to watch.
