    The new cummins are the only diesel that dont use DEF. A big +1 to dodge for that one!

    Well the fleet model (cab and chasis) dodge do require DEF. Dont ask me why, as i am trying to figure that out myself. I would assume its some dumb EPA requirement.

    I'm a Ford diesel tech, and it pissed me off when i had to take a training class for filling DEF systems

    took it out on her first towing trip through the mountains today nothing big, trailer was only 5500-6000 pounds it pulled like a dream, much smoother than my 08 gmc was, but my duramax was stronger up the hills than the cummins is. but on the downhill side the engine brake is 10 times better on the dodge than the gmc.

    Thats odd. i've always felt that the cummins felt stronger when pullin, but the Dmax and powerstroke were much fast unloaded. Its most likely how the power comes in at different RPM's

    yeah i'll wait untill its broken in better and try it again in october, but i've been going to my property 4-5 times a year for over 10 years with the pretty much the same trailer set up, and by my garmin gps the duramax was around 4 mph. faster at the top of the same hill's, and by butt gps. the dodge was easier to tame and took much less brake effort to tame going down the other side.
