To delete or not to delete ?

The manufacturers want "one rule for all" as well. Makes their life a lot simpler and more profitable.

But we should be happy that all the city people don't have to move out to the country to get a breath of fresh air. Having to deal with pollution controls on all our vehicles seems like a small price to pay to make the cities livable.

Personally I'm happy with my 2016 RAM Cummins just the way it is: un-deleted. It's clean, powerful and so far, knock-on-wood, very trouble-free.

I don't feel that I should have to pay more for fuel and an added item to repair just because some city boy doesn't want to move to a more rural area in order to curb pollution due to population density. Why should I pay for what he wants or doesn't want? I am not the one who wants to live in these big cities so I don't feel like I should have to pay for someone that does.

I avoid big cities like the plague and the area I mainly drive are not NOx sensitive areas. So the NOx from my truck has no ill health effects to others since there is not enough of it in these areas and it just dissipates eventually turning into good ozone.
