The first time i came across diesel emissions is when I traded my 2010 ProStar W/ 400 Cummins 13 speed for a 2012 Peterbuilt with the same engine 13 speed and a DEF tank... I was getting tween 8.4 to 10.2 mpg in the ProStar and that dropped 6.8 mpg in the Pete just so those tree huggers don't have to see smoke out my stacks! My 7.3 Power Stroke makes up for that :)

Yeah and that fuel cost savings can be increased by using off-road "red" diesel it's about $0.20 a gallon cheaper at the moment (don't get caught though it's a big fine) < I use a 100 gallon tank in the bed full of red diesel with an inside-the-framerail hidden line and leave my oem tanks full of the street-legal stuff with an "OMG STATE TROOPER IS STOPPING ME!" secret tank switch *using a ford factory fog light switch (mine never had fog lights)* so they don't catch it with their carry around emission "sniffer" and my high pressure fuel system will last longer because red diesel has the amount of lubricating sulfur the truck was designed for .......

the 6.0 can run on waste oil as well. it doesnt have any crazy sensors that will shut it down because the fuel is too dark. i mix waste oil with some ETHANOL FREE gas (learned that lesson the hard way. the ethanol melts the poly fuel filter) to get the right viscosity, filter the batch down to 5micron twice, and pump it in the tank. i go 50/50 with some diesel just to be safe but i have used up to 75% waste oil without issues. been doing it for a while now. still runs good. sounds good and smells good too. it saves me about $40 everytime i make a batch.

California trucks also have VERY clean fuel systems. At 140k miles I pulled my 2001 fuel tank & the screens were like new! The UV / sun in Cali can be harsh on paint & interior, but that stuff is peanuts and won't leave you stranded. It sounds like CATERPILLAR needs to create a bullet proof, no fancy BS seat warmer , extend your mirrors , adjust seats, shift to 4x4, MANUALLY. If you cant pull your mirrors out for towing, then your to lazy to insure your LOAD/ trailer / tires / are safe . Less plastic, less snaps and cheezy clips & more aluminum & real fasteners. Less to break, less cost to build , less like your living room, but a heater & AC & cup holders is all you need for WORK!

When I was in the market for a new truck I was considering the 04.5-07 ford and the 03-06 dodge. While the ford's sound more reliable, it costs upwards of $10,000 to bulletproof the engine and maybe $5000 to bulletproof the transmission in the Dodge (this is balls-to-the-wall bulletproofing too, handling 1500 ft/lbs torque) addressing both their shortcomings. The spreadsheet in question addressed non bulletproofed new trucks of the pre DPF SCR era. Perhaps the engines in the Ford last longer than the Dodge transmissions but cost more once they need fixing? Regardless it seemed like the Dodge was the better choice for me.
@chevyon37s7 жыл бұрын
Erik Kovacs the inline Cummins will last longer, that's why the Semi trucks you see every day with MILLIONS of miles on them all have big inline 6cyl's.

I`ve backed flushed the heater cores both ways which was very clean with air and water the same way you did it. But still does the same thing. Could it be that value just before the Y for the heater core is not working. Oh the water pump and that stat. have been changed witch didn`t help at all.?????

I saved the money and called the same number that I had called in the past (4070). Always someone picked up and answered, Now its automated. I left several messages and e mailed to have my 6.0 get the dealer proof update. its been months and I still have not received a return phone call. I see this video and can only assume that he does not deal with the little guys. I only live 1 1/2 hours away. Still a fan but extremely dissapointed. I guess "its all about the money."

For some reason Americans always think that newer = better. That is just not the case with these trucks, and many other vehicles. I would like to know how many people there is out there, that when they go to buy a truck, pass on a low mile 6.0 in favor of a higher mile 6.4 or 6.7 just because it is a newer truck. I know a couple of guys in the towing business that got rid of their 3-400k 7.3 trucks that there was nothing wrong with, and bought 100-150k 6.4 trucks because they were newer, and now they are on their second or third motor within the first 2 years.
