I agree with Bob- I have an 04 duramax- and for some reason there has been an issue from day one. This was my first diesel and was told make sure you blend your fuel ya da ya ya da.. Well from the -27 below minnesota weather yesterday I am going to straight number 1. I had #2 winterized diesel from kwik trip a month ago and it gelled up. After an oil change, fuel filter, warm shop and a bottle of howes with a mechanic I came away with a $321 bill. They added 1/2 bottle of Howes treatment and sent me on my way. I blended "more than enough" howes for the past two weeks. Yesterday i got up with the fridged weather and started my truck to go coyote hunting. I wasnt 1 mile down the road with 50/50 #1 and #2 winterized diesel from kwik trip( treated with howes as well) and I gelled up! Mad at the world I dogged it home and got a new fuel filter. At this point I changed the filter, added powerservice myself to the filter and went to the gas station to top it off with #1 this morning no more issues, truck said -19, and on the way it dropped to -25. Truck is running like a top. I would rather get bad milage than to sit with 2 filters, 1-mechanic charge and 3 bottles of howes to save my life. Forget the blend go #1!!! Trust me I dont want an emergency situation to come up and have to worry about my truck limping along. Also note that the guy before me had been blending his mind out, the injectors went bad in my truck causing 2 scored pistons and I have a truck with 17,000 miles on it.. Thank god for GM warranty!! saved me an $11,800 engine bill when the installed the new motor.

Today's Featured Article - On the Road with Dave Gohl: Deere Departed Friend - by Dave Gohl. Have you ever had to part with a dear friend? It's not easy. If it's due to death, your feelings could be in disarray for days, months or even years. Even now after almost 4 years, I still miss my dad. I remember when I was a kid my dad sometimes would tuck my brother and I in at night and we would ask him questions about his childhood on the farm. To this day, it's some of the best stories I've ever heard. And now, I'm so glad that I asked those questions, and if I were a little smarter i
