Looks like you got the wide-track front axle option as well. You'll love how that big bugger turns.

Actually no fuel gets into my crankcase according to Blackstone but I know the early DPF engines certainly had the making oil problem, all brands. If it were mine, again any brand, the oil change interval would be 5k max with a oil sample taken each time. Yes a PITA no doubt.
My 08 was makeing 5 quarts every 5K before delete now the oil level stays the same. I know different trucks act differently but mine was getting crazy.

You got that right! This truck only has 19000 miles, clean oasis and carfax!
And I do change the oil every 5k, fuel filters every 10k, never had any problems with my last 6.4. I read somewhere that the coolant should be flushed at 30,000 miles so I will be doing that too!

Good eye, it does have the wide track option, I think they did away with that option because the truck is basically has the same frame as the 450 with the option.
