I hear you and appreciate the info however you said, "$1200 per week monthly payment." Im hoping you meant $1200 per month. I was looking at SFI until I saw what they wanted for the balloon payments on some of their trucks $50-$80,000. Thanks for the info though.

mannn i chased that same problem for tha longest. ended up starting with tha egr cooler and than a bunch if hoses under tha radiator than tha heater core. finally i stoped loosin coolant. i was burning through half a gallon every friday. i was starting to worry it was leaking somewhere n getting into tha oil. n damn i remeber them arconics pre loads from my fraley days. dont miss that heavy dumb shit.

@@412hwc I still feel like it’s leaking from somewhere else. I checked the oil and it’s not there so it must be either leaking into the erg or the exhaust and burning off because I don’t see any coolant on the ground even after idling all night. Most of our loads out of Arconic aren’t really that heavy most of the time. They’re usually around 34-40k.
