The ride was good, a little windy but that's OK. One thing....Mike has been breaking the Canadian rules and has been leaving tips. He claims that since it is in US dollars it doesn't count.

Thats the main thing.

Yesterday, went out and cleaned up a section of sled trail. Worked at cutting trees, brush and throwing it int he bush for 6 hours yesterday. Then swapped the tires and rims for the winter to summer last night. Also changed the fuel filters on the truck. Thinking that will be the last time I do it and will get someone else to do it. What a PITA. Diesel all over the driveshaft, exhaust, the floor, down my arm...still have to go wash the bottom of the truck and pick up the floor dry.

You must be paying him way too much! You're a better boss than what Mike is saying. You give him breaks, take him out on rides, feed, water and house him.

2016 Dodge cummins. One Fuel filter is on the frame above the driveshaft and exhaust. The other is in the engine compartment with a short hose that when you open the valve, pours on the front axle.

Why do they keep designing this crap! Haven't done the new Dodge yet. Our newest is a 2014 f350 and we have 2 2017 f350 on order. All of them are a mess.

I'm not sure if they think its funny or not. Wait till you have to change the oil. You have to go through the pass fender well to remove and install the filter. No more going from underneath. The other way is from up top but you have to remove the airbox
