putting this thread here cause i don't want to know what the power strokes, cummins, and duramax's do... My question is for the folks running their IDIs and making them do work... My truck is primarliy used for hauling my play truck around, truck and trailer combined weight roughly 10.5-11k lbs, plus pull truck weight, so all in all probably 20k lbs running.. i am in FL, flat land running 95 degree days most of the year..when i combine that weight with wanting to run hwy spd my temps climb up rather quickly.. about 58mph and 4th gear seems to be the sweet spot to keep the temps at about 205-210 and when taking off and shifting the temps goes around 210-215 then running levels back out 205-210 again.. but if i hit 60+mph the temp goes to 210 and above, haven't let it get above 215 or so yet, i honestly haven't pushed it yet to see where it goes if i stay running above 60mph..but i also don't want to push it and screw something up and sit roadside with that much needing to get towed..
wondering what temps you folks see when hauling some heavy weight like that and at what speed ya'll are running? thanks guys..
