Diesel Exhaust Brake
Hey All, Looking at stepping up to a new truck and a diesel for the first time. I am looking for guidance on exhaust brakes and any differences between GM, Ford and Dodge? Thanks in advance!

...I like the two settings the Cummins has. Towing in the Rockies, Cascades and Sierras out west it has worked really well to the point I only need to brake in situations where I'm approaching a corner and need additional slowing - just going down a grade it'll hold speed by itself. I generally use it in auto mode along with tow/haul.
Yep. I pulled my 5er in the Teton's and Yellowstone area earlier this summer. The Exhaust brake in Tow/Haul mode did an amazing job keeping speeds controlled with little (if any) use of the brake pedal.
