Idiot at home did that on a duramax, bought it and never checked or changed the oil. Around 30,000 it went tits up. Dealer warrantied it and told him to never come back. Lot of idiots in this world.

Extended idle, excessive regens,broken down oil... 60-80k miles worth of horrible conditions on the oil.

When the 6.4's first came out, one of the techs I worked with got one and it went through three engines in under 200k. The truck idled the entire time it was on a site.

It's what the new engines go through to produce clean emissions. It also kills economy and is a pain in the arse.
