Looks like Don will be seeing a check in the mail to the tune of $2,800.

I always have liked how the finding of the "get around' software was found. Let it up to kids!

I like smoked fish, fish on the grill, but ROAST FISH, IDK!

I think our forum Fish is a pretty knowledgeable truck guy, that enjoys some back/forth discussion, while mostly promoting his choice of TVs. Kind of like lots of other forum members. Personally, I enjoy many of GritDog's truck posts!

Fishy actually defends the Ford 6.0 with a straight face.

Just about everyone that is a regular on the forum knows what his motives are.

No he posted this because he hates all things that are not Ford.

It will be $3,075 Tory, you should actually read the things you post! The only thing Ram (FCA's EPA Compliance Officer) did was not fully disclose what and when various emission controls were turned off and back on. The very same things your great and mighty Powerstroke and the Duramax and Cummins does. They ALL turn off the EGR under heavy loads and they all turn off the regen cycle when temp drop below freezing.

No the 2017 and 2018 do not qualify. The 2018 Ecodiesel is still being sold to this day.

They didn't do what VW did. VW turned on the emissions specifically when it sensed the test computer being plugged in. On the EcoDiesel, the emissions are on unless the engine is under heavy load. At least that's how I understood it.


Yep. But that doesnโ€™t fit the OPโ€™s narrative of bashing and trolling FCA.

They started reselling them.
Wife has a 2018 Jeep GC ecodiesel.
Further googling came up with 2016 being latest model year that qualified.
My BIL has a 2014 Jeep GC, so he would qualify for the $3000+

So a 2018 qualifies??


Did Ram even sell a 2018 Ram EcoDiesel being they stopped production and didn't sell these for ~1 year?

If you still own the vehicle like me, the payout should be $3,075 plus there is an extension on the warranty for at least some items.
