Yeah, again. I read through as many MDS threads as I could stand, reading complaints about the noise and loss of power. More people seem interested in turning it off than anything else. I would like to know a little more about how it operates. I watched some videos on YouTube, and I understand the basic operation. But does it always turn off the same 4 cylinders? Seems that would put a lot more wear and tear on the other four always running cylinders and components....? Are the MDS lifters what cause the dreaded HEMI KNOCK? IF the MDS has been around for a while, how well does an engine so equipped hold up? I can understand the desire for more economical operation, but after all, IT'S A TRUCK! I use it primarily for towing a Travel Trailer, so economy is not what is foremost in my mind. In Tow/Haul mode it is off. Have there been any long term detrimental effects of using it in daily operation?
Sorry for the length, but I really couldn't find the answers to these questions.....
