Will be getting a new truck by years end. Currently have my 2017 1500 with a 6” lift.
Love the truck and it’s such a nice looking truck. Has also been pretty reliable.
But I need a truck that can tow and haul more.
My usage of the truck will be 75% daily driving type mileage with maybe 25% towing or hauling things.
I’m looking to get peoples real life experience with the egr/dpf setups all new diesels are forced to use.
I have no interest in deleting a truck.
I will probably purchase a good extended warranty to help keep repair costs down as much as possible because I know diesels get expensive (even though I don’t think DPFs are covered under most warranties beyond the original bumper to bumper?).
also truth be told my next truck might not be a Ram.
I’m still undecided on a mega cab Cummins truck or a super duty with the power stroke. Fords new Lariat with sport package is such a nice looking truck.
All that being said I’m basically wondering are the emissions systems on all the new diesel trucks really that troublesome? Have they gotten better with model years 2020 trucks!
thanks guys!
