I've had no problems but plan on keeping this truck for a long time and just can't understand how they make this much power without severely reducing the life of the engine. Its also hard not to jump on the throttle when you know all those ponies are just a touch away. At one point i was thinking i had a coolant leak somewhere because i was just a little low in the bottle but over the past few weeks i've noticed no change since i filled it back up. Fuel mileage has also improved since I hit the 13K or 14K mark as now i'm in the mid 18's on the hwy.

That's a good report. I really need to get my Spartan tunes uploaded.
