It's pretty amazing how they can keep secrets better than our gooberment. They had to have started on this several years ago, and dumped millions into it (openly, in '14 like the article states) and the details are still a blur.

I think if I get another new diesel (Unlikely) it's going to be a Cummins powered Ram

I get passed by those things like all the time. Getting used to breathing air which is 25% black soot!

Now that is just not fair. Let out some numbers!!!

Not sure if I want anything past a 2015 though. All new vehicles are connected full time now, they know it all!

Yes it's a Functional hood scoop!! Nobody will spill the beans, I've been trying! They are only saying Bigger and Better Numbers. Only Single Turbo on the one's I've seen.
