Yes you have the LMM, and your door sticker willl show the build date of XX/09. Those are very rare and some of us here wish we could find a nice one. MY2010 built late 2009 is the only way to get a pre-DEF diesel van with a 6 speed transmission. Those had torque rating to 460 lbft, but in 2011+ they raised to 525 lbft. The 6L90 itself is rated to 525 lbft only, that's why engine is derated. Not because of cooling issues.
