That I would not know, but that "market" is tiny, so doubt any figures
Well of coarse because our trucks cost so much their especially after they need to be converted. Hence the reason why it is not worth it for most to convert a VW Amarok and other mid size trucks from Central America here We can buy a bigger truck for the same amount of money. However, I would wager of the HD diesel pick up markets size globally, a vast majority would be Cummins.
No there is no demand for US Pickups, nice niche product though, that is "course not coarse." HD Pickup market Globally is a misnomer, very few are sold anywhere outside NA.What percentage Cummins who knows ? Your best bet for Cummins demand is the NA market - ShinerBockExplorer

Which is why I asked you for the number. - RobertRyanExplorer

What is the Cummins Market share there?
For Pickups almost non existent. Cummins associated with some heavy trucks Off Road Mining , Agricultural vehicles and Diesel Trains
I am talking about HD pickups of its same size. What is the market share versus other HD full size pick ups.

Removing DEF??? Yeah for sure and a little green man landed in my backyard
He said “removing EGR”, Exhaust Gas Recirculation. A press release put out by Cummins stated they were developing an engine that would no longer need EGR to meet pollution requirements. It would all be done in the exhaust system. They would still use DEF.
I hope we see this in the US someday soon. EGR is the Achilles heel of modern Diesel engines.

Global Markets? Barely a market here. No it will be the same solution here

Let's not forget the engine is made by CUMMINS and they have other "Medium Duty" Customers to keep happy with the EXACT same configuration that comes in the RAM's. Oh I forgot the others are painted RED.
My friend has the red color and at 28000 miles the engine repair was $20500.00.
s0 as I think nothing is perfect.
