Doesn't matter after you rip all the dpf garbage out. If you tow longer distances with it and avoid short trips you shouldn't need a Regen switch. If you drive it easy and rarely work it hard then the switch would come in handy.
Or you could buy a ram and not worry about it. Just my opinion after pulling the heads/cabs/ egr coolers on 10+ Ford's.
Driving long trips doesn't help. I have a 2016 Powerstroke now and you can drive 200 miles and 2 minutes before you arrive at your destination it will go into regen mode. I put 12,000 miles on it in 4 months so there wasn't any short trips but there were times when just before you were going to shut it off guess what? Regen! Manual switch would be nice on all models to avoid this. Does the Ram not have the same system? I thought the Big Three all had it.
