Any reason as to why some 14 Limiteds are puking coolant?

It would be a pretty easy fix. Just need to run the pump for a few minutes after shutdown. Steam forming around exhaust port with no circulation. Steam expands and pushes coolant out. HD engineers aren't very smart.

It is my understanding the fans do run after shutdown. I don't have one but my buddy who does says his fans run for a bit after shutdown

Pump needs to run. Not fans.

I hear the dealers are telling Limited Owners that it is perfectly normal.
Does that sound familiar?
Just kiddin'...

Expect a recall and a overflow tank to be installed.
