Car Forum / Jeep / May 2008PING --> bill hughes
sir, i know you hate diesel engines in light vehicles for fear of pollution. in addition to purchasing an '01.5 cummins powered dodge this week (for a work truck), i also purchased a 2008 cummins powered dodge ram with the 6.7 liter cummins ( http://concealedcarryforum.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4298 ). what i find most interesting about it is that it meets 2010 emmissions standards. not only does it pollute less than gasonline engines, but (read this twice!) the exhaust from this truck is CLEANER than the air that goes into the intake. thats right, the EXHAUST going out the tail pipe is cleaner than the air that goes into the intake thanks to the particulate filter. im wondering, with this being FACT (i can post segments of the dodge/cummins produced video that explains it) how do you now feel about diesels in light vehicles?

(My $0.02: I'd love to see them in more light truck, car, and hybrid-electric applications, just for the high MPG potential)  Signature~/Garth - 1993 Wrangler S 2.5 { }|||||||{ } "MukYJ" > Hey Nathan - since it is a filter that is doing the dirty work of taking > out the nasty black solid particles, do you know if it needs to be > cleaned/changed/emptied/whatever on a regular basis? the filter burns off the particulate thus regenerating itself. Nathan In Montana http://ConcealedCarryForum.com > sir, 'Sir'? That's hilarious! > i know you hate diesel engines in light vehicles for fear of pollution. Not true. Billieboi doesn't give a rodent's rectum about pollution. His constant railing and whinging about 'greenies' and tree-huggers merely confirms this. He has no ideals, no desire to make things better or safer for anyone, or any other normal, decent human compulsions. His only concern it to be right. Undeniably and Unquestionably Correct. The World's Foremost Authority. > in > addition to purchasing an '01.5 cummins powered dodge this week (for a [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > find most interesting about it is that it meets 2010 emmissions > standards. not only does it pollute less than gasonline engines, but This is /not/ unusual. It's been the case in many parts of Europe, and has been proven by laboratory analyses time and again. It has also been replicated many times under strict laboratory conditions. Of course, it has to be mentioned that a lot depends on the quality of the diesel fuel being used. > (read > this twice!) Twice is never enough. He could read it two thousand times and it wouldn't make any difference at all. He has decided what the trvth is, and will never let the facts or any evidence get in the way. > the exhaust from this truck is CLEANER than the air that goes into the > intake. thats right, the EXHAUST going out the tail pipe is cleaner > than the air that goes into the intake thanks to the particulate filter. Billie will: o not believe you o claim the facts are wrong o probably call you a liar > im wondering, with this being FACT (i can post segments of the > dodge/cummins produced video that explains it) how do you now feel about > diesels in light vehicles? He will feel the same. Once he's decided what is correct, he will NEVER change his mind under any circumstances. As I said, he will not consider this to be fact, but more likely to be some Dodge/Cummins propaganda, and easily ignored. > Nathan In Montana Signature"Enlisted men are stupid, but extremely cunning and sly, and bear considerable watching." -- Army Officer's Guide bill, really wondering what your feelings are on this. thanks, Nathan In Montana http://ConcealedCarryForum.com > sir, > i know you hate diesel engines in light vehicles for fear of pollution. [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > Nathan In Montana > http://ConcealedCarryForum.com > bill, > really wondering what your feelings are on this. > thanks, > > Nathan In Montana > http://ConcealedCarryForum.com Good luck. When Billie /can't/ answer, he ignores. When he can't fabricate something semi-plausible, he keeps quiet. If he doesn't like the question posed, he will claim falsehoods. What he will do though is poast 100 messages di garbaggio to ABPA in anger and frustration. Such is life in Billie's tiny world. But please don't hold your breath waiting for a sensible reply. >> sir, >> i know you hate diesel engines in light vehicles for fear of pollution.

Where I come from we don't need oxygen.....
