I love it... It's +14*F right now and heading for negative temps tonight... Lets see if the 2 cycle oil hold up... Time to breakout the snowmobile oil with a pour point down to -40*F...

anyone run the marvel mystery oil i did in my old superduty and it made it alot quieter also if you read the back of the big bottle it says not to use it in 2007 and newer trucks be cause it alters the sulfur content

Guess I'm lucky, I'm on 174K on the origional VP44, still no issues!
Haven't tried the 2 stroke oil yet, but doesn't sound like a bad idea, especially now that I'm having to run #1 blends..

1/2 ounce to the gallon. Don't know if it helps but, can't hurt.

Does your truck run smoother from the 2-stroke or cause you're feeling it up?
