Cummins spent the money and Dodge is purchasing the technology. One must remember, Dodge and GM do not build their own diesel motors and Ford will be the only manuf. that own their own diesel with the release of the 6.7L. I do agree that Cummins has their act together. Ford does not make its owne diesel Nav Star makes the power stroke for Ford.

Thinking about buying a prevost, which will have the system in 2011. If you buy before will you be grand fathered in or required to make changes? Which is better? I am thinking if its less polution sounds like a good thing.. But what will it effect and how so. Pros and cons? So much for nothing at this time turns out I have a few Questions :) None at this time trying to learn. Thinking about buying a prevost, which will have the system in 2011.

It is my understanding there is some speculation that the memory locations will be locked for the SCR portion of the PCM. On the new ford trucks, like many of the other manufactures using urea, if you run out of urea, the truck will run but in a limp mode until shut off. Once the truck is shut off, the truck will not restart until the urea is replaced. I would imagine that one could trick the urea level sensor to indicate there is urea in the tank when actually there is no urea (can you say voided warranty). The problem comes when the states start to require NOx measurements as part of the emissions process, which you know will start in the very near future once the 2011 diesels are released.

I work for Airpark Dodge in Scottsdale, AZ. Dodge spent the money to make their trucks work for this new emission standard back in 07 so they made zero changes to their motor and were able to pass the test.
