Just picked up my new one Tuesday

Hey guys I just picked up my new 6.7, manual on Tuesday. Sure does look scary under the hood with all the emissions equipment on there. I really wanted the 5.9, but I absolutely hate auto trannys, and this was the only one they had with a manual. Hopefully I won't have any trouble with the new design. I do know that it runs really well for an unmodified engine. I'll give the truck and the aftermarket some time before I start modifying this one. So far it is great, has anyone had trouble with theirs yet?

I just traded my 6.7 in today for a o7 5.9 6 speed..
The mileage was not good, even with the juice and air-raid. It ran great but crappy mileage. Oh, I almost forgot the grass fire I started at work...
Have fun, congrats and good luck.

I have had my 6.7 for about two weeks now, 2300 Miles. A few problems, will go to dealer Sunday night.

1. Throttlr stumble/hesitation. Dealer to re-program computer, replace cat converter as per Rapid Response Recall.

2. Loud clunking when shifting to and from reverse/nuetral etc, when stationary, no trailer.

3. Huge fan noise when AC is on. No AC, no fan noise.

4. AC blows semi-cols even early AM or late PM.

Will post what the verdict is when I get it back.
