and now I just learned that the 6.4l 2010 F350 SD has an exhaust brake built in! I had no idea and after a bunch of reading (and help elsewhere) I learned that when in Tow/Haul mode you just tap the brake when descending a hill or slowing down and it will engage the exhaust brake by closing off the variable vanes of the turbos!
Here I thought I needed to spend another $650 to get one :D I'm happy about that one!
Glad I could help. This is one of the best places to learn about trucks and campers. Facebook not so much.
6.4 doesn't have an exhaust brake in OE configuration. You need a programmer to activate the turbo vanes for braking.
If they did, there wouldn't be programmers to activate it.
