what happened to the million mile claims?

[The motor guy]

How many did you see that didn’t even make it to the highway ? Current emissions strategies are designed to eliminate ICEs and mandate EVs. Luckily some of this may change early in 2025. I’m saving my coin for a delete to help out the Green Initiative while I throw another log on the fire.

More likely to be broken down in the city at a stop light. Where you have to nurse a barely running engine into a parking lot somewhere all while still stopping at 4 stop signs before you can get there.

Or broke down at the dealership for weeks or months with NO fix available while the notes come regularly and the insurance payments while you have to catch a ride to work.

And if you think these are isolated incidents, check out any of the diesel pickup forums. There’s thousands of them from every brand.

Well not to derail the thread, Merry Christmas to everyone! I would like to continue but I don’t want to be pi$$ed off all day. So Peace. Out.

I hope they do catch guys going with a delete.

Be careful what you wish. Karma is h3ll.

That's what I think with guys who infringe on the cleanness of the of the air I breath.....and break Federal and/or state laws. But you know-'Merica don't infringe on my pickup truck.

Makes no sense at all. Maybe they were aiming more for fuel economy than emissions? Well there goes the fuel economy. I wonder if mpg will drop 50 percent like it did on the diesels when they got a dpf

They are forced to add something for the epa. When that causes issues, they add something else…and on and on. Becomes much more complicated. Thank you epa.

And most of these emissions devices reduce fuel economy, in turn increasing CO2.

Just an update:
President Trump has signed an Executive Order reducing EPA Regulations on tailpipe emissions for Automakers.

reduced to what? Did he put a stop to dpf's on gasoline cars?

No details. He just said he was going to stop the EPA bureaucrats from strangling industry in the country. At that time he said he was going to reduce the EPA regulations for tailpipe emissions. That’s all I know.
And said the “Green New Deal” is out.

I think mobile delvac used to claim it was the million mile oil. didn't see that on the new bottles, now I saw rotella claimed like 400,000 miles. What's with the conversative numbers now?

Rotella has their 500k T6 warranty. If I was the kind to buy a new truck and that truck was a Ram 6.7 with hydraulic lifters, I'd be tempted to read further into the fine print and speak to a lawyer.

This is why I love my Olds 350 diesel, she just keeps running forever thanks to not having any of that overly complicated emissions nonsense!

Ok not really

Lmao. You know she only looks good parked in the garage where she can't break down.

My bet is they would place the failure on mechanical defects and they would be out Scott free.

Ford SuperDutys with the 6.7L PowerStroke that are purchased by the Federal Government are deleted from the factory. Rules for thee but not for me I guess. Shows just how problematic the systems are though.

That's not true.

Link on this please.

Here's an example of no emissions equipment on Government run Diesel vehicles.
