    Yea, that's what I thought... not sure about the regen stuff. Drove a 2010 cascadia with the regen for about 9 months... problems every week. But it was a detroit motor.

    I did at first but once they replaced the sensor on it I never had any problems with it for about the last 80-90k miles I drove it.

    Guess they figured it out... I changed trucks so no idea what the issues was with that cascadia.

    Yeah mine has the def. It's costing me about $25 s week by only getting it at the pump. I'd probably choose not to have it if there's a choice just to avoid the extra expense. On the plus side it's a california legal truck for longer then the ones without. So it might help resale when that day comes.
     
    Drifter42 Thanks this.

    I don't blame you there. I really liked the cummins engine I had before this. Better power and the engine brakes worked way better.

    Been a rough day today. Took 8 hours to get loaded now the load will be late and it messes up my day tomorrow. And even at $35 an hour it won't compensate for wrecking my weekend. But I guessI will just have to wait and see how it turns out.
