Hi everyone
My name is Larry. I've viewed this website for a long time and have never posted, or introduced myself. I have a 2005 Dodge diesel with a 6 speed Getrag tranny. This is my first diesel and we have no complaints about power and mileage. Currently I am thinking about getting an exhaust brake. I started pulling a trailer that weights around 7,000 lbs + and I truly see the need when doing downhill. Our trailer has brakes on all 4 wheels, but there are times when added braking would be nice!! We have not spent a lot of time searching for exhaust brakes, due to what I describe as sticker shock. They have all been over $1,000. We think getting something close to OEM spec. would be good.
Thank you in advance,
Larry
