Since Cummins are six cylinders I assume you mean seventh injector.

Whats a few extra cylinders among friends?

If they do that with farm plates, thats pretty dumb.
Who wants to have a DMV handing out farm plates to everyone who asks for them, even when they don’t farm?
It’s a slap in the face to farmers that are entitled to them because of their occupation

Explain to me exactly WHY farmers are ENTITLED to plates that allow them to circumvent pretty much EVERY requirement but a guy who owns and operates a small construction company is not? I'm not against them, but the idea of someone getting their panties in a bunch because they don't like they fact that someone else was given the same brakes they did, well that tends to rub me the wrong way. If the state is willing to give a person a farm plate for a vehicle, good for that person. The only reason for me to get upset about it is because I don't think that person is paying their fair share and the solution to that is to do away with farm plates all together. I don't think anyone wants that except maybe the government who's collecting the fees.

One thing to note on the newer diesels.
It seems only on Ram do they inject extra fuel for DPF regeneration through post-injection into the engine cylinders during the exhaust stroke. There have been some complaints about engine oil fuel dilution.

Not a concern for me. I refuse to own an engine that requires DEF. I'd go with a gasser before dealing with DEF. For my purposes, it just wouldn't make sense.
