Diesel Bombers - Crashcrippleton

Hello All,

I live in Penticton,B.C. Canada. Yep, I'm a Canuck,eh? However, I did spend 7 years in the U.Sof A going to college so I still feel somewhat attached, even though it's been a while. I live about 45 miles north of the US border so going over the line either camping or just visiting is an option that I explore often.

I drive a 2003 GMC Crew Cab 2500HD Duramax (LB7) 4x4. Mostof my driving is local (short distance). From April to October each year, I tow a 30 ft. 5th wheel. The truck has little or no problem with that. Don't even know it's there. I purchased the truck in 2005 from a friend who trades in trucks about every 2-3 years or so. It then had about 60,000 mi on it.....all highway mostly pulling a 4 horse trailer. I now have 165,000 virtually trouble free miles on it.
Other than basic maintenance and a new alternator and two new batteries, I've had little or no problem. It's a great truck. About 5 years ago, I added a Superchip programmer to my system. It too has made a big difference mileage and performance wise. I run a K & N air filter as well which I service 4 times a year, whether it needs it or not.

I guess that there isn't much more to tell. Look forward to chatting with folks.
