    Wait much longer and you likely won't be getting a non emissions glider. I think it is a short period of time before that door gets slammed shut.

    The. Again, now that CARB has admitted that DPF's cause engine damage, that window may stay open a bit longer.

    Thanks, I thought 2.64 was low for a manual. That sounds like the ratio for autos.

    This crap by carb is nothing less than a perpetrated scam... They've already uncovered the idiot who are used as information on did not really have a degree but rather pay $1,000 for one through a diploma Mill

    I'm just glad they finally had to admit to the damage that their emissions requirements is causing. Curious to see where it goes from here.

    The manual Cascadias are 2.64 under a straight 10 speed tranny. Don't know about the autos.

    Personally I would prefer a shorter gear. About 3.57 under a 13 speed. I think mpg would be better, but all these trucks are spec'd the same.

    SNI's specs are great for long runs over flat terrain, but horrible for short runs or hills. Just my opinion, which isn't worth much considering I don't own 16,000 trucks.

    Did you have to submit 2290 form to Schneider? Or did Loan Mountain?
