I have a 12 2500 ST CC LB 4x4 CTD. I'm retired so my daily drive is anywhere from 3/4 miles to 2-3 miles. Sometimes it never even comes close to warming up. Other times I will take a long drive south to see family. (150 miles RT) I tow every other weekend and sometimes every weekend during the summer. Sometimes long 1 week trips. Others short 45-60 miles one way. I don't have DEF which cuts down on regens. My oil change intervals are 2800-3500 miles. Not a problem for me as I only put about 9-10,000 a year on it. It's just past 2 years old and I have 20,000+ on it. Zero mechanical issues. Best truck I've ever owned. Of course 20,000 miles is nothing but in the 2 years I've had it not one new rattle or anything. Truck is tight.
With the new ones using DEF my understanding is the oil change intervals are greatly improved.
