"COKED UP"
Anyone ever hear of a turbo getting ("coked up" dealer term)? I lost a lot of power and massive drop in MPG while towing to Co. Took truck 2012 3500 drw dodge to dealer and they had it for 3 days. ...

Yup! Common problem. Run with the EB on all the time
On my 2007.5 Dodge 6.7L I can only use EB when on the highway. At least on the 2007.5's Dodge has got a bad bug in their programming. EB causes changes to shift patterns similar to when the Tow Haul is on. In slower traffic it often causes extremely harsh downshifts. Harsh is an understatement...it SLAMS! Same issue occurs when using Tow Haul. They did have a harsh shifting TSB years ago. No change. Reading forums others have had the same issue. So use EB only on highway.
I had tons of trouble with mine when new. Fouled up EGR, heater grid, EGR and turbo multiple times. Turbo replaced 3 times and many other changes. But that was 50K miles ago and several years. No trouble since.
