I appreciate the compliment - I'm proud of the truck. I must admit though if I had my way I'd be rollin' in the Resistol version! I fell in love with that beaut at the Dallas Car show this past march. . The grass is always greener ---- :p I bet the 2010's are really gonna be...

The dashhawk is great - 100's of gauges at your finger tip. Flawless really. I actually bought it for my Hemi Ram - to monitor the trans temp -carried it over to the 6. 7 'cause I had it... . As I said it works great and can help you keep track of the regen modes too - just make sure you...

I have a question for the pro's as I'm rather new to diesels - the 6. 7 is my first. The question is at the end but first I wanted to share our experience and brag a bit on Dodge's powertrain! Oo. Last week I took my family on our first cross country trip pulling our 8. 5K travel trailer...

Mine does the same thing - especially when going from drive to reverse and back again - or even when just changing from drive to park. Dealer claims its normal. It pretty da*$ loud - makes me cringe every time. The diff is bullet proof, but it still makes me cringe. Evindently the torque...

Just thought I would give an update for anyone interested in this thread - Went to Dallas Dodge today and had the service manager verify that my truck had the latest engine/transmission flash (it already had latest version) and also had him check to make sure the body control computer (overhead...

SAG2 & others - I've had my 6. 7 since december - trouble free. Not so much as a cat near full message. About 2 weeks ago for good measure I had the latest flash applied. About 2 days ago I suddenly received a CAT 80% full message along with a "ding" sound - I looked around wondering...

It's a wives tale, urban legend that won't die etc... #@$%! the truck absolutely will regen while using cruise control. I have a dashhawk monitor that shows when the truck is in either of two regen modes. I no longer need it to tell me though, as I can easily tell just by how the truck runs and...

WOW! 150,000 miles - have you had any soot problems with the turbo? Any other problems to speak of?

I hear ya - those of you that use it professionally are in a painful situation right now. You are getting pounded on several fronts now - HUGE fuel costs, Higher initial vehicle costs, lower MPG etc..... Did you get another 6. 7?

Let's not get confused with Furd ok? Its not a variable vane turbo Its a variable geometry turbo -sliding nozzle.

No trouble whatsoever with almost a year and 10K miles of big city - stop and go driving (grocery getting). I have 2 times pulled my 10K trailer for maybe 300 miles. Put the right fuel in - keep the mods OFFFFF, and you'll be just fine. LOVE THIS TRUCK!Oo.

Somebody needs to add some balance to this site. No - it's a great thing keeping our air cleaner. Everytime I take my two little daughters for a ride with me I'm happier knowing they are not breathing in diesel particular matter (from me). For the record I've had my 6. 7 for almost a...

I've had the same thing happen with mine - its always when its in regen mode - runs like a completely different truck, GOBS of power, can smoke the tires from 1 to 3rd gear - and the throttle response is ridiculously twitchy. Only lasts as long as the DPF temps are 1000-1200F you can also...

Sounds good to me - the fewer people the better!Oo.

Ah! Good point - Wow, the new emmission stuff really takes its toll in more ways than one #@$%!. The power difference is startling, like you stated even more so when cold!
