If you own a diesel car or truck ... this may help.

Thanks for you reply, I pulled the trigger yesterday and ordered a 2020 Wrangler Rubicon 3.0 Diesel at my local dealer. They say it's 9 weeks to get but that's fine I am in no hurry and did not want a gasser. I am a diesel guy and own a shop that deals with them everyday. I do not like the new emissions but that's the way it is while under warranty. The local dealer gave me 2k off sticker because it will be the first diesel Wrangler they will be selling. everyone else around wanted sticker and would not even discuss any other deal. Its crazy down here with dealers. I attached the build I ordered I hope it shows in the post. Very cool. I won't blame you if it ends up a turd. I will wait till it comes in to see if I want to lease it or buy it. I don't like leasing, it is like throwing money away, but if I start hearing issues before then its a option.

The DPF crap for air pollution is a bunch of bull... Before I retired I worked on Mack trucks. They had all the fancy expensive crap for keeping the PPM down to keep EPA happy... Well guess where all the carbon particulates go when they build up in all that fancy crap.... The dealer takes the crap off, knocks all the soot out that they can. The EGR cooler gets both ends opened up and a air hose goes in and a cloud of soot blows out across the back lot... Then if you can clean it enough, you force a re gen to burn off the rest... We had "Truck drivers" and they knew everything, so they would hit the button not letting the truck re gen. Until it finally shut down... You dont want to do that very many times.....

After working on trucks for 40 years I'm staying with gas... Its way cheaper in the long run and a lot less headaches.. If you have one, remember to keep trading, you dont want to be the one that has to pay to replace all the crap when it wears out...

I understand your feelings, I have a customers truck in the shop right now with a DD13 that came in for DPF codes. Five months ago we found both DPF's cracked. Replaced them $8,000 and it came back now with more DPF codes. It was fine for 5 months. Now after doing the diag it is saying it needs a Onebox. My cost is $7400 plus diag and install. over $20,000 in 6 months for a 2015. The warranty ran out in August of 2019. Very scary numbers out of warranty.
