He may have a compression brake system, like semi tractors do.

geo8rge, Most likely that truck owner has a high performance chip to modify engine performance. I had one in my Ford for towing, but it never smoked badly.

I'd much rather get "dusted" by the diesel smoke than hit with a mirror. On the other hand, some of his passes were a bit close.

I posted a similar post a few days ago & some guy and I will try to quote him as close as I recall, but he said "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa quit being such a crybaby you environ-MENTALIST,I love all diesels". And I said You don't have to be an environ-MENTALIST to desire clean diesel, If Volkswagon can do it why can't we, the once most brilliant innovative country in the world.
