I vote Cummins.... That being said, the only non poser in this point in the game is Ford. Everybody else (even Ford until recently) uses someone else' garbage...

Question that I shudder to think about.

I work for the west coasts largest mechanical contractor doing HVAC, controls and refrigeration.

I have been doing this work for nearly 20 years.

Before that I was an automotive service technician and boat mechanic, I worked on both commercial and pleasure water craft. I spent nearly 15 years on that trade before doing what I do now.

Let me just say, that some of the comments on here are so uneducated and environmentally irresponsible, it totally makes me think of the condition of the river after the tube float...

Your mother does not follow you around picking up after your dumb ass. What you spew into the environment is EVERYBODY's business. You ever heard of the off road campaign of "Tread Lightly"? do you know why that came about? It was because of stupid irresponsible douche bag punks going out onto public lands and destroying natural habitats. Why in the hell do you think the BLM and other Nazi government agencies were able to come in and take over? Because these morons gave them the tools necessary to do so... Nothing else. They had evidence of total disregard of the environment and were able to convince congress, the president and the general public that they had to step in... Basically had to be your mother...


Why do you think diesel trucks are now being SMOG inspected? Because of what people are doing by "Rolling Coal" on people and being a complete punk dick.... You gave them every tool they needed to establish this precedent. You mother had to come in and take control....

Why do you think most inland lakes, with very few exceptions now have a decibel restriction for noise? Again, because super loud isn't loud enough and we have to be dry stack headers and bus the marinas and water front housing... Again, needed mother to come clean up your act.

Why do you think it is that Caterpillar completely quit building DOT diesels?  Because it was too expensive and difficult to build a reliable diesel service engine to meet the new DOT standards...

So you think you're making it so the standards will be reduced by creating a carbon trail? WTF.




FWIW, to anyone reading this thinking they know everything because some fuctard in Saskatchewan says it is less pollution than a gasoline engine exhaust, he is totally FOS. Diesel exhaust carries 200X the emissions that a car can create. Even if that car ran like total crap.


Just so you know... You know that purpleish/brown nasty smoke looking shit you see in the sky in metropolitan areas? That my friends is NOX (oxides of nitrogen), diesel exhaust produces more than 25% of that NOX... Still think it's "environmentally Harmless"?

You also think that because a large portion of the black smoke "falls to the ground" that it does not get into the water supply and contaminate everything that lives in, drinks and swims in that water?

Think again.


Get a clue.

I am done with the idiotic thread.
