Cummins builds

Cummins is building gas engines now for Dodge trucks. Says diesel burners are coming to an end.

I don't buy Dodge products but this may mean something to those who do.

Re: Cummins builds

Scania is importing diesels for commercial trucks that don't require a DPF. Unfortunately, the "small" one is 13l. Why can't other diesel manufacturers figure out what Scania is doing?

Re: Cummins builds

The diesels the government buys don't require DEF systems.

Re: Cummins builds

The government doesent require any specific system (dpf,def,doc), all they care about is the emissions. It is up the manufacture of the engine to determine how they want to comply with the standard. In many cases a doc system is all that is needed to make the engine compliant.

What DavisChevy is saying is that the government exempts the trucks it buys from the requirements that they put on the very same trucks when you buy them.
