EGT issue is only when I'm pulling a hill loaded. Empty I couldn't even get close to 1200. Cruising on flat ground with a trailer usually sits at 800F, without trailer 600F. It does take a good hill to hit 1200F with a trailer behind.

Empty and cruising EGT's sound normal. I don't pull anymore and deffinately dont have hills around here.
