• is it required to warm up your diesel before driving?

Solutions for this would be, remote starter. Or the BD Idle kit, or an exhaust brake to aid in warming up quicker.

• is better to leave running, or just shut it off if only going to be 5 minutes?

The BD cool down timer will shut the truck off at a set temp or time. If anyone tries to steel the truck the second they touch the brake without the key the engine shuts off.

• can you fill the fuel tank with it running?
Yes but people get goofy when they see it.

• diesel engines go longer intervels before oil changes?
Always check the owners manual

• What temperture does diesel gell?
Using a good fuel additive helps reduce this issue, as well, some run fuel heaters.
