Just curious but I thought this forum put the instant ban-hammer on delete discussions? If not I like it.
I do not understand why anyone would be banned or any discussion hidden when people do so at their own risk and it is not like this forum is only available in the USA.. Just because the EPA sniffs their nose around places and Karen's will be Karen's.. does not mean I will let it dictate the way I communicate and discuss my experiences in life. Honestly lets squash this here and not go further down this very blue leaning rabbit hole but just know that an online forum for heavy duty trucks should not have an admin resembling anything near an Twitter site admin.Just curious but I thought this forum put the instant ban-hammer on delete discussions?

Woah there cowboy, relax. Just asking a question - didn't mean to ruffle any underpants...I do not understand why anyone would be banned or any discussion hidden when people do so at their own risk and it is not like this forum is only available in the USA..

You may be correct, however in many places other than the USA and even parts of it are and will be slow to catchup. All this emissions systems will continue to improve and I believe that soon they will make it like the AISIN and be nearly impossible to tune. I think this will be one of, if not the last generation of truck we can do this with. Call me old school or call me hard headed.. but I will continue to enjoy my truck and share information until there is something better out there that is more enjoyable instead of laying down right now and stopping what I want to do because of fear of future advancement & policies. Everyone is free to make their own decisions and accept the consequences that come from it.. good or bad. Thanks for the other side of this discussion though.The issue here is by all of you deleting, now the states are starting to enforce the emissions platform that these trucks have to meet. When all that happens, you'll either have to put the stuff back on to pass or face the issues. We're already starting to see them look at trucks and do more than just a snap test for smoke. It's going to be state by state issue and I'm certain that federal road share dollars will come into the picture and playout as well.

Not going into limp mode when running out of DEF for starters, or the added cost of DEF. Also freeing up a few hundred lbs when parts removed is a bonus. Decrease in fuel economy during regen also sucks.The trucks make 1000 tq with emissions intact what more do you need?
It’s called Pay to play.Not going into limp mode when running out of DEF for starters, or the added cost of DEF. Also freeing up a few hundred lbs when parts removed is a bonus. Decrease in fuel economy during regen also sucks.
Valid point. I am ok knowing I am greedy lol.It’s called Pay to play.

I’m pretty hard leaning right but I also don’t see the need to delete a truck that runs that dang strong from the showroom floor.
I guess it’s “cool” to delete your truck but in reality you look like a tool when you pass everyone and blow black smoke or have a loud ass stinky diesel. It’s just not cool anymore.
What is really cool is having a quiet non-stinky truck that makes 1000tq and doesn’t smell or sound like ass.

Stated by someone with a Gasser.It’s called Pay to play.
This is not really true just because its deleted dies not mean it has to be loud or blow black smoke i will be deleting mine but keeping a stock HP tune and running a muffler… i just prefer not having dirty EGR gasses causing buildup in my engine and i also prefer not having DEF issues in the cold if i can find a tuner who can delete the EGR and DEF but keep the DPF i would totally do it atleast until i start having DPF issues then delete that too as i have no interest in paying 4k for a stock DPF systemThe trucks make 1000 tq with emissions intact what more do you need?
