I am new to the diesel world and looking for any type of information that will help me keep the new to me 2006 2500 MegaCab running for a LONG time.

 

Welcome to the DTR, consider this site the "tree of life" for your truck then. So much info and a bunch of great people to help along the way.

 

Dodge, I am hoping to be where you are. I sign out on transition leave this year!!!

Retirement here I come!!!

 

Welcome to the DTR, SFC.

Browse around the the third gen section, there is a lot of reading and knowledge there.

In a nut shell, good filtration, good oil and regular maintenance, good warm up and cool downs will take care of 90% of it!

 

SFC well I gotta tell ya its pretty good to be out. Miss the people and the mission,,, but I dont miss the Army. I guess I'm a glutton or just cant get enough of the life cause I came back over to Iraq as a civilian to work on helicopters but since it closed I got moved to Kuwait.
Best to you and yours.

 

Check out the TX Chapter #8 forum. I'm at Hood but currently deployed. I hang out with those guys a bit. They are a GREAT group and very knowledgeable folks!
