I'm planning our trip for later this year and just for grins to pass the time on this 4th of July weekend, I dug out the owners manual to go thru the maintenance checklist.
YES, I am very disciplined about the oil and filter change as recommended, and I check tire pressures before every trip and at least every day of travel. But the antifreeze?? when the engine is cold, I just look at the level to be sure it is OK. BUT, I think the last time the rig was drained, flushed and refilled was about 2006 - right after our escape from Katrina trip to Northern LA.
The owners manual for my Cummins C6 recommends a cooling system flush and refill every two (Yes - 2) years!!! Just one more little thing to be done in preparation for our fall trip!!!
I have it done every 24-mos. I use Vehicle Manager to track and remind me of maintenance.
