I was talking to a service writer at the dealer today and he said the new 07 emissions are very strict.
Things that stood out are:
*All diesels will have a cat as well as a particulate filter. The cat will have to be cleaned every 4-5 years at a cost of $400-500.00
* The cost of a new diesel engine will go up $2500-3000.00 due to the new emissions equipment.
I dont really think either is possible (The cat makes sense, but the cleaning? I call b.s. to that)
I don't think emissions will cost antwhere near the price ststed. That would kill the sale of diesels. They already add about 5 grand to the cost of the truck. Anymore would make them too costly.
Anyone hear anything like this?
