RE: Yikes! I am glad this guy is giving advice to the mega-fleets and the brainwashed idiots out there. It lets the O/O's who know better be more competitive against these clowns, by not buying into this salesman's Alligator-preacher bullarky. - It is very clear this is nothing but a targeted salesman garbage towards mega-fleets purchasing agents and nothing more. For those who can't see that, I feel sorry for them. All I see the guy saying when I watched it was ... * Don't change the oil often enough so you can save some money, just let the soot eat the internals to death. The soot-monster and suspended wear metals eating the engine up and carbon packing the rings won't effect you cuz your getting rid of it at 400k miles when the warranty runs out anyways. - Ii also noticed he interjected "based on 7+ mpg". I wonder if they read on an Internet forum somewhere you should change your oil based on fuel consumption? - I have been saying that for years to people. * This particular truck is geared to lug the crap out of the engine, causing lots of internal friction and wear when loaded, but when your empty you can save some fuel cuz its geared too tall. - Who cares about when your loaded 80k and need to actually move anything of decent weight,... Were here to look good, not to do actual work. Its ok to beat that engine to death on the bottom end of its rpm range, your getting rid of it and trading it up once the warranty runs out for a new one before the engine gets trashed too much anyways. * We had to modify the radiator and fan to get them closer because lugging the crap out of the engine all the time makes excess internal friction + oil run hot. We also had to modify the water pump to speed it up when luggung the crap out of the enigne, but slow it down when you go fast. We won't talk about the fact that the wet-liners can have more chance of cavitation whenw e slow down the coolant flow, that is for the next guy who purchased after it has been beat to death, then traded in it to worry about. I.E.> We have perfected the ratio of abuse and accelerated wear vs save a tiny bit of money right now, just enough to get you past your warranty period. Let the next guy who owns it worry about having to undo all the damage, more parts sales for us. * Get with the dealer and OEM so they can get you set up for milking the most money out of you that they can get. Make sure to add on all the extra rubber and plastic pieces That wiegh an extra few hundred pounds just in case you drive like a bat out of hell at 70+ mph speeds where they will start to make a difference while your sucking your fuel tanks dry at an accelerated rate. - We want you to save a few thousand bucks over the next 5 years in fuel, so that you can give twice as much of it back to us every time you have to replace that wheel-hugging side-skirt junk cuz they are always getting destroyed by road use, backing up on docks that have ramps, etc. -- This guy is obviously NOT a truck owner, but simply an OEM trained salesman. Even so, Freightshaker trucks ARE one of the most aero trucks out there. Owning one is not a bad investment if it is used as a highway truck and not off roads. A lot of the garbage he was saying comes from his own sheer ignorance and brainwashed salesman's training. That particular setup he is bragging about though, I feel sorry for the poor bastards who have to haul any weight with that garbage. It does nothing but suck the bottom out of the fuel tank unnecessarily when loaded heavy to make torque in rpm ranges that will beat up on the internals like mad.
