No joke.. Urea? I was reading an article in the SAE I think where a company out in Vancouver BC that was making a Nox/DPF system that wouldn't require any of that stuff. Why not pursue that instead? How many rig rockets are gonna have a jerry can of Urea?

Does anybody know what this urea is going to cost? Where will it be available? I wonder if they"ll require diesel stations to carry it. The very idea of it seems so retarded. They couldn't come up with anything better than an additional fluid to monitor and maintain?

I think that is the big unkown. As I understand it Urea is generally an acidic liquid with ammonia that has been used with a catalist to reduce emissions from industrial sources.
What the formulation will be for automotive SCR systems remains to be seen, how much urea a vehicle will use is also pretty much a guess, as is how much it will cost...

I'm curious to what they are doing to the tranny seeing as they added a larger transmission cooler. 8spd? 12? The tranny coolers on them are pretty good sized as it is.

"Sir your urea tank is just about empty, for an additional charge of $500 we can refill it for you" If you don't what happens?? Seems like they are taking the longevity part out of owning a diesel. Or jack up the costs of owning one so bad that owning a gasser will always be cheaper. Doing all this diesel emission stuff and our standards for "good" gas mileage have not changed in the last 15 years. Could buy a car getting 32 miles per gallon in the early 90's and today that is what they sell them at....unlike our foreign counterparts, dare I say toyota and honda?
Me, I think I've decided that I'll never own a truck newer than 2002.....Cummins. Just so much garbage on them now that will fall apart, friend works at a dodge dealer said the cp3 was pretty cheap, but the high pressure pump was $6700(may not have my pump wording right cause I don't know doodle about the 6.7 but he said one of those pumps was that price) and the injectors are $2000 each talk about messin some drawers!!
