    Hello my name is Bob and I am not a driver, rather a mechanic and trying to get back into this new era of trucks, what with EGR's, Particulate filters, Regen, DEF.....etc. I spent 9 years away from the main stream of civilian trucks, working on Army trucks and the whole industry has changed. I say that the engineers have ruined my trucks, I mean really "Diesel Exhaust Fluid". What is next, Grease for muffler bearings?!!! Any way that's me in a nut shell.

    I got a kick out of reading the last part of your post "grease for muffler bearings"...... haha
    I agree it's changed a lot over the years. And the first time I heard of 'diesel exhaust fluid' I thought someone was screwing with me.
