3000km road trip results

[tonto]

Hey all. I recently returned from a trip up the Alaskan highway (destination Liard hot springs) via central Alberta. I was towing my ridiculous 13ft, single axle Scamper the whole way (terrible idea if anyone knows these roads!).

Truck performed just fine with a mildly loaded trailer. I climbed some pretty steep grades with it, hitting 220ect 230eot temps (was quite nervous about those temps but the fan brought it down good).
I did shat my pants when the turbo inlet boot blew off because the tech didn't clamp it right!

Anywho, 3200km is a testament to my stock engine and I've never been more happier with my 6.0!
But does my consistent highway tow temps of 210ect and 218eot seem a little high? Even when I'm unloaded on the highway I see 206ect 212eot. Perhaps an improper coolant ratio?

your temps seem to be like mine. 04 6.0 just had it worked on last summer, oil cooler BP egr, latest in ford tsb's. went to colorado over last 2 weeks going over wolf creek saw eot ect around 212-220. At 75-80 mph saw about 10-12 deg spread at 60-70 they were in in 8 deg max spread. I wasnt pulling anything.

Those temps are about the same as mine.

Maybe it's something revised in the newest strategy? I'm gonna do a ph test on the coolant too maybe it is the concentrate/water ratio?
