Yes sir (before I say this I have a 700hp lml) but I work for the road department in Arkansas and all emergency vehicles and some other stupid rules can be deleted, make diesels better again 👍
Diesel Electric is the way to go. Deboss Garage is working with the manufacture who has a working Diesel Electric 18 wheeler, runs on a diesel generator to power electric axles. Deboss Garage is also retro fitting the system into a truck, replacing the axles with electric axles and re-powering it with Cummings New 4 cylinder constant RPM diesel generator. Just as trains operate as diesel Electric soon this refit will be available to everyone. it is worth a watch on Deboss Garage. the all new diesel electric conversion running a Cummings constant RPM engine to power electric axles with higher load capacity then stock with all the instant torque and speed of an electric vehicle, with NO RANGE disadvantage as it is powered by diesel engine generator as a train is.
@@pyrolysis2129ever read into the operation standards for the chassis cab diesels that end up ambulances? They have no speed limited def warning strategy. But civilians are mandated to oblige by it... 💩
While my wife was in college she had to write a paper about environmental pollution, I helped her do a lot of research for it and studied a lot about EV vs diesel waste. You could drive a diesel truck for 126k miles and still produce less waste than the production of a single EV. For these politicians t’s not about them actually wanting to protect the environment, it’s all about the money in their pockets
I would love to hear about some of your sources on this topic. I completely agree with you, and it's nice to have solid data to back up the argument that EVs are not near as good for the environment as the propaganda tells us.
@@cdsmit27 Lol im about to go work in the Thacker Pass lithium mine in nevada, the amount of mining/diesel burnt to get the lithium out of the ground... will never pay in emissions from that alone, let alone the plastics going into the body, tires, electronics and metalurgical aspects of it. LOL BUT ITS GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT Its a racket
You would be amazed at what it takes to produce and ICE vehicle. No one wants to talk about that one, do they? Actually, they are not the different. The batter components are very recyclable. Redwood energy does that at scale. They have affiliation with Tesla the world's largest and most say the best in EV's. Elon Musk is no dummy.
@@keithwiebe1787 Obviously you like millions of jugs of DEF in landfills, regen and EGR systems that fail constantly and plastic parts everywhere. I prefer my steel beast that lasts not only in miles, but in years.
yasss I love TRUE diesels I drive a 2007 389 long nose Pete semi with a CAT c15 with no DEF and god I love the smell and I love rolling Coal my rig rolls so much coal I LOVE it I just can't go to cali I hate cali anyways don't want anything to do with that fairy state lol
I'm an owner operator. Here is my story of def and why I will never run it again. I spent $20,000 on def filters, diagnostics,towing and repairs. Within 3 months, I had a full diagnostics done every single time. It's through the same code. I took it to seven different shops in 4 different states. I drove my truck 200 mi after getting it back from the last repair shop and blew the engine. Turns out my EGR cooler was leaking and broke, open and dumped all of my coolant into my intake manifold at once and hydrolocked the engine at 70 mph. The def system was literally hiding the fact that my truck was burning coolant... 🤬 The EPA I now drive a truck Old enough that it doesn't have a emissions control.
So you weren't regularly checking your coolant levels? When an engine is loosing coolant and there is no obvious leak the egr cooler is the first thing to investigate especially on the ISX and X15 Cummins engines. So it's obvious you weren't performing a proper pti on your truck.
@@ChrisHarding-lk3jj @ChrisHarding-lk3jj ... Okay, I guess it's time for me to go in depth and write an entire novel of everything that I did simply because it's the internet and I can't cut corners. it used about a cup of coolant every 2,000 miles... Every truck I had up until the one I currently have burned around a cup of coolant every 2k miles... The current truck I have started doing the same thing. It's just it doesn't have a def system catching the white smoke, every once in awhile I get a whiff of burning coolant and then I'd see a puff of white smoke come out of the exhaust and due to my previous truck I immediately had the EGR cooler replaced and the problem stopped. This truck does not burn any coolent now. (I had never owned a truck with a def system until the truck that hydrolocked) As for the diagnostics. The first code I got was a dpf filter differential code, I had them diagnose it and they told me that my DPF filter was clogged. I then had it cleaned place back in the truck and the code returned within a thousand miles. I then had them do a full diagnostics to make sure that it was the filter and not something else. I then returned and they told me for sure that it was the dpf filter, I have them replace it, receive the truck back and The same code returned within a thousand miles. I then took the truck to a different shop, have them run a full diagnostics once again, then they told me that my differential pressure sensor was malfunctioning, I had that replaced. Received the truck back code returned again within 1,000 miles with a new code def dosing valve incorrect voltage.
@@ChrisHarding-lk3jj i then got the dosing valve replaced and had them do an exhaust gas analysis to make sure the truck wasnt burning anything it shouldn't. The analysis came back normal with no abnormal emissions. They recommended i run the truck through a forced regen if the code returns... Except when the code returns, I can't force regen it from the button in my cab... So now I have a new code on top of the DPF code, stating scr differential pressure sensor out of parameter. So once again I send the truck in for a full diagnostics at yet another shop, so I have my DPF filter cleaned and now I have my SCR filter cleaned, my scr filter differential pressure sensor replaced My exhaust temperature sensors replaced (at this point I'm out $10,000). Truck throws code for DPF scr and dosing injector. This is also the point where I Read about the EGR cooler's possibly failing. So I I have them do a cooling system pressure test, it comes back has no leaks. At the end of my rope I then go and buy a 1 Year subscription to Cummins insight and then plug into the ECU I then assume the ECU is failing and sending back the wrong information so I replace the ECU. I then get The same codes yet again, I take the truck to yet another shop and have them test all sensors in the exhaust system they come back functioning properly.
@@ChrisHarding-lk3jj I get the truck back, this time the only code it's throwing is dpf differential pressure high but within peramiters every 2,000 miles. Mind you the truck was regening every single time. I drove more than 150miles. At this point I'm essentially bankrupt, so I continue to run the truck and just clear the code every time it came up, I ran it like this for 1,700 miles. I was cruising at 65 mph at 1400 RPM when the engine locked up. I posted onto the shoulder, lifted the hood and saw all the coolant draining somewhere, I checked the oil and that's where the coolant was going. I then called a wrecker to take me over to the nearest truck stop, when I reached the truck stop I spent the next two days figuring out what caused the engine to lock up, I pulled the intake hose off and found coolant pooling in the intake manifold, I found no coolant in the turbo intake fan. Which completely stumped me at this point, I then checked the egr return lines and found it completely full of coolant and bits of metal at the bottom, i then pulled the egr cooler off to find that it had massive chunks of radiator gushing out with coolant... Mind you all of this is for a f****** exhaust filter.... Also my current truck. I was able to attach this issue immediately as I saw a proof of white smoke come out the exhaust That's all it took and I was able to diagnose My EGR cooler was failing....... There's your novel of an explanation.
They don’t because they are speced to run on JP8 because the ultra low sulfur isn’t readily available overseas. So any vehicles that might need to be deployed outside the US can’t run the emissions stuff due to it requiring the ULSF.The ones that don’t have emissions are severely limited in use on road.
Should have never bought a vehicle w that crap on it in the first place. The technology would have been dumped but nooooo everyone bought to look bougi and now complaining about it. I still drive my 2007 pre deff Doge and could care less about a new truck and all that EPA bs.
@keithwiebe1787 Your not supposed to run them indoors and if your a mechanic they have this invention called a particulate mask and filtered exhaust fans and if your that concern try out for a position at McDonald's.
@@stevethomas5209 LOL dude. I've been a mechanic for 45 years and worked on diesels in the early years and was around them in the later years. I know when you can breathe and when you can't. You want them to pollute don't you?
I have a friend who was charged with felony by the EPA For a violation of the clean air act and was found guilty, has never had a single arrest in his life and has a felony now for being a tech at a trucking company, as an added bonus he was fined 125k.
every single emergency, federal, and military vehicle on the road today with a diesel motor is emissions exempt. prefect example of "rules for thee but not for me".
All of our new Ambulances and Fire engines have DEF and DPF's on them.. And they all have problems with them as well as they spend alot of time idling..
Since far more than 50% of Congress is big government and often buy global warming propaganda, it's likely they try to pass such regulations if we don't replace them with more Thomas Massies
Rudolf Diesel has been spinning in his grave for a long time! Read the book, “The Mysterious Case of Rudolf Diesel,” by Douglas Brunt. No, I don’t get paid for promoting this book. It’s just that I’ve been reading the book and it’s very interesting. Diesel invented the engine to burn vegetable oil, nut oil, etc. Read the book. I think the Supremes did the right thing.
The actual reason military vehicles are deleted isn't because of emissions (funnily enough it doesn't have an effect) it's about them being able to run on whatever shitty fuel they can get wherever they are deployed. That being said it has no actual effect on emissions so why do we need dpf filters and such? OBSOLESCENCE it forces people who would have a 4-500,000 mile truck to purchase new trucks due to premature engine failure completely caused by build ups of carbon due to these emissions systems. It's all about company profit and not emissions to begin with.
@@bobwilus437 when tuned properly without def a diesel gives off less emission than gasoline vehicles, they just look dirty because of the black smoke( unburnt fuel) as far as how clean the fuel burns But in terms of gas mileage, diesel engines release 12.5 to 20% less CO2 per mile, making diesel the cleaner option over longer distances.
@@bobwilus437 a a dpf does is force the vehicle to burn all the unused diesel (more emissions then it throws pee, literal euria def in there to cool down the outrageously high exhaust temps that caused massive Forrest fires in Australia (reason why alstrailia allowed people to delete farm equipment)
@@TheREALLibertyOrDeath for personal use sure. Businesses however can use that cost as a write off. Obviously you and I, not so much. The killer for business is the associated down time due to emissions system failures, which thus far have been insane. Lack of replacement parts has only compounded the issues. Farmers can’t wait for weeks or months for their tractors to get fixed and truckers especially Owner Operators would be bankrupt be for the truck got fixed. Plenty already have.
@@TheREALLibertyOrDeath rather put that money towards a vehicle for the company than essentially just burning it giving it to the FED’s. That moneys going to leave one way or another at least with write off’s you can make use of it.
They will lose until we get rid of Qualified immunity. The EPA will argue that they were working in good faith with current case law at the time and should have immunity.
I can put high quality non ethanol in my tractors and machines that get used infrequently and it'll crank when I need it. The problem is finding it. I have 1 tractor that gets used maybe once a year and it fires up religiously except for may needing battery attention. I'm all for options.
Ethanol has its place but yeah I agree it should NEVER be mandatory. We have ethanol free gas here in Utah but it’s only 88 octane. I have to run 91 or higher. I am curious as to what it would do to cost per gallon if it was un-mandated?
I'm a fan of both big guns and fast cars, and this ruling was huge. My only worry is about giant factories now being bolder in dumping toxic waste into rivers and streams and the like 😬 Otherwise this is a good thing.
@@jacobm2625 well then congress should pass a law so the factories don't do that rather than letting the EPA make up stuff with no oversight. I love the environment and we should protect it as best we can but the epa making extrajudicial rulings isn't the way to go about it.
Here in Commifornia any vehicle after after 1975 has to have a smog inspection.When it use to be 25 years or older would be exempt.I found out somewhat recently that the good ol terminator himself(yes he was our governor) screwed that up.
He also gave us the 50 BMG ban......shooters just slightly trimmed and reformed the brass to make 50 DTC. They had commercials about 50 cal rifles shooting through cop doors, but failed to say that a 22lr can penetrate a steel car door and any of the far more likely choices of a person on a killing spree could do the same along with the fact that 50 is rarely used in crimes. I have a 79 C20 truck and 88 K5 blazer, both classic square bodies and have to deal with the smog BS.
I’d want international to get back into the engine making industry too. EPA ruined their DT466 and VT365/MF7 engines since 2007. And caused them to quit making them.
@spidergoose891 you can't put enough solar on a vehicle to use it daily. A 10K generator could add back 20-25 miles of range per hour. (Cybertruck uses about 450Whr per mile). 60mph would deplete the normal range in around 5 hours. The generator would extend that to 7 hours a fairly useful day of driving.
If nothing else Cummins should sue the EPA and get back that 2.9 billion dollars in fines they just settled.. He'll, maybe caterpillar could even sue them for lost Revenue though that would be much harder to prove.
1.6 million miles on my semi. Def has caused over 1/2 the problems in my semi VS the rest of the entire truck. Other than the engine rebuild, DEF has also been the most expense in repairs compared to the rest of the truck. Disconnected the Def system for additional repairs and my engine blew clean at all RPMs with the only exception being if I floored the throttle from low idle. When I did that, it smoked for about 2 seconds and that wasn't dark smoke. Kenworth said my engine is a Clean Burning engine so it will blow clean with and without the dpf system.
Def doesn't stop the smoke, it just lowers NOx emissions, but def being urea (aka ammonia) it puts out toxic fumes from heating the ammonia which no study has been done on at all to see how bad that is. The worst thing for the engine is egr though, no matter how clean a diesel burns egr destroys the motor.
Caterpillar was working on a prototype exhaust system in the late 2000s that would detect soot in the exhaust and fire up a propane fueled exhaust "afterburner" mounted in a separate muffler before the final one. This was before DEF but after DPF. No idea how well it worked, but you never saw smoke coming from that machine, even when pushed hard.
I’m glad it’s been overturned, because what we do to improve how our diesel trucks run for better fuel efficiency and longevity should be up to us, Among other certain things.
About 3-5 months ago I started research on EV and the negative effects vs positive effects they have, here in about a month I’m petitioning my state in court to allow deleting diesels are you willing to sign a petition on it? I’m petitioning NV
I had a 1985 GMC crew cab dually, when my 6.2 liter diesel heads cracked at about 545,000ish miles I could not find any 6.2 liter diesel heads and bought a 2004 Chevrolet 2500 with a 6.6 liter Duramax with transmission, that had been T-Boned at the rear axle, from the junkyard that bought it from an insurance auction, it had 1,900 miles on it, and I took Engine, Transmission, all the computers, the compete wire harness from front to back bumpers, dashboard, fuel tank, exhaust and anything else I needed to put it all in my 1985 square body, fabricated an adapter for the motor mounts, and created a new cross member altogether for the transmission, found a new yoke for the differential and had a new drive shaft made and went with a 1 piece instead of a 2 piece design, when I got it running, the first time I stepped on the gas pedal, I was amazed at how much more power it has, and it EASILY lit up all 4 back tires, something the 6.2 could never do, and about 4 months later I discovered something very awesome and unexpected, something about the gear ratios in the transmission and the differential, was somehow complementary to each other, but I was getting AMAZING mileage from the new engine, I only partially investigated and researched the phenomena that I had stumbled upon, but was please with the 37ish MPG that I was getting out of it, so IF you buy that square body, and BEFORE you do a Cummins swap on it, you might want to seriously consider a Duramax swap, if you can pick up one from an Insurance auction that is damaged in the rear, the work on the body and frame, might be worth the efforts.
It doesn't mean that we can tune. It means that it is up to us to sue the living crap out of the agencies that are preventing it and then working to make proper laws that make sense. The judgment said it did not shut down past laws/regulations but stopped new laws from being created from unregulated agencies. It is still illegal to tune and we the people MUST step up and do what we should have been doing for the last 100 years and making our voice the power instead of the government's voice.
The EPA knows best, Look at what a wonderful job they did with the gold king mine in Colorado! They took a very very minor problem and made a huge expensive disaster! Governments create problems so they can sell a solution!
Hopefully something changes man, I got stopped and randomly inspected in Maryland the other day. The trooper gave me a paper saying they as Maryland state troopers have the right to enforce state, local, federal including EPA laws if you are under suspicion of a violation. Keep in mind I did nothing wrong, I just had an exhaust tip which made him have the right to pull me over due to his “suspicion”. Funny part is this truck still has emissions 😂
not even surprised with Md though, back in the day troopers used to be outside their car in the median doing radar and would jump out into the fast lane to make you slowdown and pull over. One of them musta gotten hit or something because that technique is long gone but it spoke to how bold they were/are.
I agree with you 100% I appreciate the depths that you went to to interpret this I also agree and have heard also that a lot of the three-letter agencies like you said ATF and the EPA and Others May finally be able to be held accountable for their policies love your program follow it as often as I can thanks for all your hard work take care
The problem will still be at the local level. If emissions are mandated by the state on diesel engines in order to have the vehicle registered, the state could still refuse to have the vehicle registered if it failed an emissions inspection due to the vehicle being deleted. I'm using the state I live in (Colorado) as an example.
@@PeterFogel - If CO has not changed you are correct. Counties can pass different laws. This was true with marijuana. What was legal in county A is illegal in county B. Stop feeding the people in the cities cities for a week and they will forced abolish their communist ideology.
@PowerstrokeSynd woowee! That name has a bad taste with me! Bought a programmer for the eco tune and it deleted my ecu! I had to take my ecu out and send it to them with the programmer so they could fix the ecu!
Previously-decided cases will remain, but future cases will be evaluated by the new standard. The agencies will still rule how they want until challenged in the courts. The rules can still be applied to you until the courts make the final decision, usually after years of fighting in court. In short, you can still get in trouble and spend tons of cash in legal battles, but you might still win in the end. The Four Boxes Diner explains it pretty well.
If we vote right for President the next few times and get some big corporations like Cat and Dodge to fight these 3 letter words we might see change..Otherwise they are going to continue because nobody is telling them to stop.
Good going, brother! I absolutely love what you've brought to the table and us diesel owners (2024 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD ZR2 6.6 Duramax). I'm also a Second Amendment advocate and legal funds contributor. Keep fighting the good fight...... thank you.
I work on the new stuff & we make a lot of money off of emissions issues. It is nice to have a clean tailpipe & not feel dizzy working on them having to deal with DEF stinks. It would be cool to see brand new trucks come factory with a mechanical Diesel again like in the 1990s. Even if the new stuff is factory deleted I’ll still take the old ones.
Omg that was my first thought when this was done away with I'm so stoked congress has to be the entity passing laws for us not unelected officials period
Read the SCOTUS ruling. They said they wouldn’t change rulings that were previously made. Which makes sense because that would involve 40 years of regulations.
That just means this particular ruling isn't going to overturn all of those because they have to be appealed in court. The reality is that it's going to take 20+ years of intense court battles to really strip power from the 3 letter agencies. Meanwhile the 3 letter agencies are just going to get even more aggressive with their new rules and enforcement until further challenges strip them of power.
The Chevron Deference was a bad legal decision because the Admistrative Procedures Act which predated it specifically says that courts are the ones to decide ambiguities in the law. This is what the Court said in the Loper Bright decision.
I had a 99 Dodge Ram 1500, with a 360. It had a catalytic covenverter issue twice. The second time we opted to core the Cat vs pay another $600 for a new one. Then I moved to AZ where there was emissions tests. Worried for 6 months, but then watched it consistently pass emissions for 5 years with no issue when I sold it. Even had a leaking plenum gasket.
GM and Ford both sell diesel autos in Europe that get 25+ Mpg. They have been "Illegal" here. The thing is, if both vehicles are driven 100,000 miles, the total emissions is LESS ON THE ILLEGAL VEHICLE.. Because it burned less fuel to travel the same distance.
I’m pretty sure the Chevy Cruze diesel got way better than 25 mpg. Anyway, modern Euro diesels are just as strict as the US diesel as far as emissions. However, the EU generally focuses on a little different types of emissions vs the US. So, it’s certainly possible that even tho a EURO V or VI compliant diesel might be just as clean as a US tier 4, it might not be clean in the right places. I can tell you that many EU vehicles have required gas particulate filters for years while they are just beginning to show up here.
They’re already doing away from dpf and they not offering any at the gas stations now but for these new trucks couldn’t tell you. But now it’s time to get of the epa on some level. They don’t believe in automotive industry. I agree with water and stuff but the rich are losing money on not getting their products sold hahahaha tuff for them
Truck Master.. I don't think the government or anyone for that matter should be able to tell us what we can or can't do with our vehicles that WE pay for.. If the government whats to give me a vehicle then I will leave it stock but don't tell me I can't modify a vehicle that I paid for. That is my decision. We have been modifying our vehicles since such a thing as the aftermarket came along. The government needs to do what "we the people" tell them to do, not the other way around. There are a lot more serious problems going on right now that they need to deal with than telling us what we can and can't do to OUR vehicles.
Lets go!!! We the people, this got me so excited. I just got my dream truck 2024 ram 2500. Which obviously opened the door to tuning only to completely be shut down...
I was actually more excited about this with regards to cars than guns. CAFE will be a paper tiger, and that means V8s won't have to keep getting killed off.
@stanfordbanks3399 I mean with the way thi is are now law or not you gonna need weapons no matter what. Not trying to scale your comment UT what said kind of doesn't make sense
Folks, this SC ruling is about 18 months late. 18 months ago the EPA was defeated by the State of WV. The SC ruled that the EPA did not have authority to make law. Only a legislative body has that authority, and that authority can not be delegated. I deleted my truck and was not worried about the legal ramifications because I understood the EPA v. WV ruling. What you should now focus on is agencies like the DMV and the fact that they can't mandate registration or insurance on a vehicle. Your lender can say you must have insurance but not the DMV.
Yes and no. If you have a million to cover an accident then you don't need insurance. Now what happens when you don't see me walking in the cross walk because you where on your phone and missed your red light? I have to pay for my medical and take you to court all because you don't have insurance. Liability is and should be required. Collision after you have a title is your choice. The thing is. We have told insurance companies what they need to charge us. We don't look at the speed or anything that is really related to driving. We are more interested in looking at the map telling us where to turn or what did that text say. If you don't know your oil temp, coolant temp, amp, rpm, or speed. Should you be driving. After you hit me if I asked you if there was anything parked on the street could you answer or would you have to look back at the street because you had no idea of what was going on. That is the problem. People don't know what is going on around them. Driving is a privilege that in the USA we think is a right. Now if you want to change that law then ok I'll play ball. Maybe if you get into an accident then you have to go to driving school. The point of said school would be for you to tell your instructor four things. What your instruments tell you, what is in your mirrors every couple of minutes and when you get through an intersection Three things. What was on the left side of you, ahead of you and to your right. I think that you would most likely not pass. Then you should find that you don't get to drive because you don't know what the bomb that you have control of is going into. Now I ask you this? Can you tell me what was going on at the last intersection you traveled through. Now it's close to your house. You might just hit a kid sometime. You might feel safe in your car but I will think that you still have told a child look both ways before you cross the street and if you see a car make sure that the driver sees you before you cross the street. Now that you can kill someone you don't do that anymore. Now I have people who honk and show me guns and stuff when I stop and take the time to look both ways after I have been at a stop for a while. Was that minute of my life worth more than your life? They thought so. If you want insurance to be less than next time you are a passenger ask the driver what they saw when they stopped at an intersection. If they don't know and it was only 30 seconds ago you need to ask them to stop the car and let you out. That person is placing your life and everyone's at risk. Maybe if we just did what we told kids we would not need insurance tell them I'm sorry to tell you that because of your friend who is going to hit something sometime. I don't want to have to pay for them destroying my car they should pay for it. So insurance will do that.
@josephhodges718 that is correct! However, you don't realize that the term driver refers to a professional driver. Initially, a drivers license wS required for cab drivers, truck drivers etc... This is like a CDL. However, over time the states altered the definitions so they could tax the public. There is a right to travel and the private, for profit, corporations saw an opportunity to squeeze more money out of the public. The Supreme Court has already ruled on this. Do some diligence before offering opinions.
No. This is incorrect. The DMV does not mandate insurance or registration as you are claiming. The requirement to have registration and insurance is done through law that was passed by legislatures and made those laws in the exact way you stated the SC requires them to. The state DMV’s are not making regulatory agencies nor do they set standards or enforce those standards.
@@jamesajandathis is also incorrect. The first driver’s license’s were issued in the early 1900’s and made no distinction between driving a private car or a truck for commercial use. In fact. Semi trucks weren’t even around until the 1920’s and driver’s licenses had already been around for decades in many places. A true commercial drivers license wasn’t even a thing in the U.S. until 1986.
Smashed the like button!! I am deleting my EGR and DPF on my 2008 Ford F250 in a couple of weeks. I already had the parts purchased and was going to do it regardless because I live in Nebraska & no one was going to be checking it here anyway.
You should probably read what the Judges said about the Clean Air Act. Unfortunately this ruling will not over turn the EPA's Clean Air ACT which was a bases for the Chevron ACT to begin with. But it opens the door for all other ABC agencies that has made LAWS & RULES without going through CONGRESS. So basically NO Deleting of the DEF Systems.
I've broken 200k on my LML and would prefer to rebuild rather than buy new, so this is encouraging for me. More than willing to spend 15 to 20K on an engine and tranny that operates efficiently.
SUBSCRIBED! I agree that EGR equipment destroys otherwise long lasting engines. I have a Diesel BMW and the only problems with the vehicle at 130k miles are the emissions equipment! Peace on friend!
That's why it's important to elect the right people. To put trust in the judicial system is a little sketch. It seems some judges, not all, are more into activism than anything else. Unfortunately, money dictates everything. All these extra parts that are being made, no matter what industry, somebody is getting paid. I don't expect the bureaucracy to go down without a fight. But at least it's a start. Josh, thanks for this perspective. Hearing about this the last few weeks, I didn't even think about associating it with our diesels.
DEI has infested higher education so naturally the bar has been lowered to accommodate everyone instead of weeding out the inferior and letting the cream rise to the top. Judges spend how many years living and breathing DEI nonsense before making to the bench ; now since they are elected, it’s up to people with brain cells to remove them and get actual competent judges installed. If you need to see how wokeness is destroying the USA, look no further than SCOTUS. Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor are Biden and Obama (respectively) DEI appointed. We the people cannot change SCOTUS or rely on SCOTUS for change; it has to start at the local levels and move up from there. We need competent leaders at the city and county levels first to stabilize things and (let’s be honest, voting R or D doesn’t work anymore- D just guarantees misery) get strong state leaders and legislators. America first candidates and libertarians are who will likely be best for America.
Trucks rolling coal is absolutely nothing compared to all the plastic problems, and they didn't try to fix that. Delete your trucks men and tell anything government related to fuck off.
If you're "ROLLING COAL" you're an idiot to begin with and know nothing about diesel engines. All your doing is putting so much fuel in that it can't burn it all. The extra fuel washes down the cylinder walls and ends up in your oil pan which thins your oil and will everything take out a bearing or all that extra fuel in the cylinder will burn a hole in the top of the piston.
Emissions are for manufacturers. Even "carb" is written for that. Extending it to the consumer who has to maintain the vehicle is observed. It is your property.
I totally agree with your premise. But in all, actually, every since the federal and state government required licensing and registration of motor vehicles, no one actually ownes their vehicles. Especially when the fed and states put emission restrictions and requirements on the manufacturers. I wish i could delete my emission B/S on my diesel, but i don't have the finances nor the good luck not to get caught. So i painfully deal with the annual EGR cleaning and things associated with it. Thank you for your videos and the information you provide.
After-market parts makers are the heroes now that Chevron has been proven illegal. It will take 6-9 months to produce new parts to walk around the illegal modifications these guys did to our vehicles. The next question is this: can we sue the govt to fix our vehicles? Lawyers should be lining up right now.
Here's something you didn't address. First it isn't the EPA that enforces the law, it's the USDOT and the States. Second, the LAW hasn't been ruled unconstitutional nor has enforcement of it. Thus you still can be fined or have your ride confiscated if you delete. So, what do we do? Request that improvements be made and the be retrofitted to older vehicles. DEF is nothing more than refined horse piss. It causes reactions to reduce NOX pollution in diesel vehicles. The largest issue is that diesels create too much particulates, thus the soot problem. They actually burn cleaner than gas engines when that issue is resolved.
@@bobwilus437 The EPA is overall responsible for air and water cleanliness. However most of the enforcement is relegated to the States. That's why emissions testing in the State of Arizona and many other states is conducted by the State Department of Environmental Quality. Only a vehicle carrying a USDOT number can be checked by that agency.
I can tell you as a kid growing up in Southern California in the 70's, pre emissions, the air was shit. It was brown and it smelled horrible. I would hate to see it go back to that.
Well we don't put lead in fuel in cars any more. We have EFI in gas engines and modern diesel is very clean it's just not "clean" in the way the idiots in DC want.
By our constitution ONLY Congress can make federal law and the states of course can make laws for their citizens. However a state law cannot over ride a federal law, or the Constitution, same as a law made by Congress cannot make a law that goes against the constitution. NO agency can, by rule of law make laws. What they do however is shield these rules they can make with fines and imprisonment that makes it so they are by definition a law. ATF has been in over drive with their absurd gun "rules" doing this.
A area business keeps records. Strict records of 8 dsl pickups. A couple years back the DEF crap *fell off* just over 2 mpg increase across the board on these pickups. Multiple drivers, pulling mostly under 10k cargo trailers. * a couple used as pov, 3500 single axle trailer at most.
I had a 2016 Silverado with a Duramax in it. I bought it with 30k on it and within 10k I was having so many problems with check engine lights and other issues that the dealership just couldn’t fix. I did a complete delete on it and after that all of the problems disappeared. That truck finally ran like it should.
Like This Video! We need to get this info out to everyone. What are your thoughts on the Chevron deference getting overturned? COMMENT BELOW ⬇️ ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
Yes sir (before I say this I have a 700hp lml) but I work for the road department in Arkansas and all emergency vehicles and some other stupid rules can be deleted, make diesels better again 👍
Let's Go!! Thank you for posting this!
Diesel Electric is the way to go. Deboss Garage is working with the manufacture who has a working Diesel Electric 18 wheeler, runs on a diesel generator to power electric axles. Deboss Garage is also retro fitting the system into a truck, replacing the axles with electric axles and re-powering it with Cummings New 4 cylinder constant RPM diesel generator. Just as trains operate as diesel Electric soon this refit will be available to everyone. it is worth a watch on Deboss Garage. the all new diesel electric conversion running a Cummings constant RPM engine to power electric axles with higher load capacity then stock with all the instant torque and speed of an electric vehicle, with NO RANGE disadvantage as it is powered by diesel engine generator as a train is.
@@TruckMaster excellent!! Too many regulations made by the wrong people.
Careful calling out the EPA on Chevron Deference my dude, they’ll get the ATF in their corner and they might go after your dog
The fact that government vehicles are exempt from def tells me everything I need to know
They aren’t. All fire trucks are built with DEF and are used by state and federal governments. We have nothing but trouble with them too.
only military vehicles
Bingo
I'd like to see an amendment the says the government cannot exempt themselves from any law.
@@pyrolysis2129ever read into the operation standards for the chassis cab diesels that end up ambulances? They have no speed limited def warning strategy. But civilians are mandated to oblige by it... 💩
While my wife was in college she had to write a paper about environmental pollution, I helped her do a lot of research for it and studied a lot about EV vs diesel waste. You could drive a diesel truck for 126k miles and still produce less waste than the production of a single EV. For these politicians t’s not about them actually wanting to protect the environment, it’s all about the money in their pockets
I would love to hear about some of your sources on this topic. I completely agree with you, and it's nice to have solid data to back up the argument that EVs are not near as good for the environment as the propaganda tells us.
@@cdsmit27
Lol im about to go work in the Thacker Pass lithium mine in nevada,
the amount of mining/diesel burnt to get the lithium out of the ground... will never pay in emissions from that alone, let alone the plastics going into the body, tires, electronics and metalurgical aspects of it.
LOL BUT ITS GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Its a racket
It’s also about control. Electricity is easy controlled and not easily stored
You would be amazed at what it takes to produce and ICE vehicle. No one wants to talk about that one, do they? Actually, they are not the different. The batter components are very recyclable. Redwood energy does that at scale. They have affiliation with Tesla the world's largest and most say the best in EV's. Elon Musk is no dummy.
a certain fact we need to stop law makers from buying into stock market while in office,term limits needed also.
Let’s get rid of DEF!!🎉
Its nasty it stinks its crosive i fuel trucks all night and i hate defing trucks all night long
It causes more environmental harm, plus plastic pollution.
if only people knew how much energy is used to mine the urea to make that DEF...... and from where
Jug a day ! Krazy!
I offload over 200 gallons of def every single night and it is the most nastiest corrosive s*** you can never imagine
Trucks that last 30 plus years are more environmentally friendly than than the new diesels that are disposable garbage.
No, not at all.
@@keithwiebe1787 Obviously you like millions of jugs of DEF in landfills, regen and EGR systems that fail constantly and plastic parts everywhere. I prefer my steel beast that lasts not only in miles, but in years.

yasss I love TRUE diesels I drive a 2007 389 long nose Pete semi with a CAT c15 with no DEF and god I love the smell and I love rolling Coal my rig rolls so much coal I LOVE it I just can't go to cali I hate cali anyways don't want anything to do with that fairy state lol
I'm an owner operator. Here is my story of def and why I will never run it again.
I spent $20,000 on def filters, diagnostics,towing and repairs. Within 3 months, I had a full diagnostics done every single time. It's through the same code. I took it to seven different shops in 4 different states. I drove my truck 200 mi after getting it back from the last repair shop and blew the engine.
Turns out my EGR cooler was leaking and broke, open and dumped all of my coolant into my intake manifold at once and hydrolocked the engine at 70 mph.
The def system was literally hiding the fact that my truck was burning coolant...
🤬 The EPA I now drive a truck Old enough that it doesn't have a emissions control.
I absolutely agree, screw the epa. But you went to incompetent shops. A leaking egr cooler is easy to diagnose.
So you weren't regularly checking your coolant levels? When an engine is loosing coolant and there is no obvious leak the egr cooler is the first thing to investigate especially on the ISX and X15 Cummins engines.
So it's obvious you weren't performing a proper pti on your truck.
@@ChrisHarding-lk3jj @ChrisHarding-lk3jj ... Okay, I guess it's time for me to go in depth and write an entire novel of everything that I did simply because it's the internet and I can't cut corners.
it used about a cup of coolant every 2,000 miles... Every truck I had up until the one I currently have burned around a cup of coolant every 2k miles... The current truck I have started doing the same thing. It's just it doesn't have a def system catching the white smoke, every once in awhile I get a whiff of burning coolant and then I'd see a puff of white smoke come out of the exhaust and due to my previous truck I immediately had the EGR cooler replaced and the problem stopped. This truck does not burn any coolent now. (I had never owned a truck with a def system until the truck that hydrolocked)
As for the diagnostics.
The first code I got was a dpf filter differential code, I had them diagnose it and they told me that my DPF filter was clogged.
I then had it cleaned place back in the truck and the code returned within a thousand miles. I then had them do a full diagnostics to make sure that it was the filter and not something else. I then returned and they told me for sure that it was the dpf filter, I have them replace it, receive the truck back and The same code returned within a thousand miles.
I then took the truck to a different shop, have them run a full diagnostics once again, then they told me that my differential pressure sensor was malfunctioning, I had that replaced. Received the truck back code returned again within 1,000 miles with a new code def dosing valve incorrect voltage.
@@ChrisHarding-lk3jj i then got the dosing valve replaced and had them do an exhaust gas analysis to make sure the truck wasnt burning anything it shouldn't. The analysis came back normal with no abnormal emissions.
They recommended i run the truck through a forced regen if the code returns... Except when the code returns, I can't force regen it from the button in my cab...
So now I have a new code on top of the DPF code, stating scr differential pressure sensor out of parameter.
So once again I send the truck in for a full diagnostics at yet another shop, so I have my DPF filter cleaned and now I have my SCR filter cleaned, my scr filter differential pressure sensor replaced My exhaust temperature sensors replaced (at this point I'm out $10,000). Truck throws code for DPF scr and dosing injector.
This is also the point where I Read about the EGR cooler's possibly failing. So I I have them do a cooling system pressure test, it comes back has no leaks.
At the end of my rope I then go and buy a 1 Year subscription to Cummins insight and then plug into the ECU I then assume the ECU is failing and sending back the wrong information so I replace the ECU. I then get The same codes yet again, I take the truck to yet another shop and have them test all sensors in the exhaust system they come back functioning properly.
@@ChrisHarding-lk3jj I get the truck back, this time the only code it's throwing is dpf differential pressure high but within peramiters every 2,000 miles. Mind you the truck was regening every single time. I drove more than 150miles.
At this point I'm essentially bankrupt, so I continue to run the truck and just clear the code every time it came up, I ran it like this for 1,700 miles. I was cruising at 65 mph at 1400 RPM when the engine locked up. I posted onto the shoulder, lifted the hood and saw all the coolant draining somewhere, I checked the oil and that's where the coolant was going.
I then called a wrecker to take me over to the nearest truck stop, when I reached the truck stop I spent the next two days figuring out what caused the engine to lock up, I pulled the intake hose off and found coolant pooling in the intake manifold, I found no coolant in the turbo intake fan. Which completely stumped me at this point, I then checked the egr return lines and found it completely full of coolant and bits of metal at the bottom, i then pulled the egr cooler off to find that it had massive chunks of radiator gushing out with coolant...
Mind you all of this is for a f****** exhaust filter....
Also my current truck. I was able to attach this issue immediately as I saw a proof of white smoke come out the exhaust That's all it took and I was able to diagnose My EGR cooler was failing.......
There's your novel of an explanation.
The us government don't restrict government vehicles for military purposes then why do we need it .
What model?
Do as I say, not as I do
@@cyclone-g2zso you drive one truck and you deny policy of the us government
Do you know the world is bigger than just your eyesight!!!
I know for a fact that the Oshkosh military vehicles don't have emmissions
They don’t because they are speced to run on JP8 because the ultra low sulfur isn’t readily available overseas. So any vehicles that might need to be deployed outside the US can’t run the emissions stuff due to it requiring the ULSF.The ones that don’t have emissions are severely limited in use on road.
DEF and all the associated exhaust hardware should be abolished ASAP.
DEF works pretty good. For fertilizing lawns.
Should have never bought a vehicle w that crap on it in the first place. The technology would have been dumped but nooooo everyone bought to look bougi and now complaining about it. I still drive my 2007 pre deff Doge and could care less about a new truck and all that EPA bs.

This is the kind of trash that is flipped on its head with the Chevron decision.

@@savage22bolt32you can’t sue.

Absolutely
Need to sue first and ask for that as recompense as part of the settlement or decision.
Never happen, but it’s a nice thought
I have a friend who was charged with felony by the EPA For a violation of the clean air act and was found guilty, has never had a single arrest in his life and has a felony now for being a tech at a trucking company, as an added bonus he was fined 125k.
every single emergency, federal, and military vehicle on the road today with a diesel motor is emissions exempt. prefect example of "rules for thee but not for me".
Um, that’s not true.
All of our new Ambulances and Fire engines have DEF and DPF's on them.. And they all have problems with them as well as they spend alot of time idling..
Nope, only the Feds can get away with emissions free. More specifically the military. Because they know those systems are hot garbage
Regening but yes youre right
Finally, no more laws without proper representation!
A properly tuned and unrestricted diesel is clean, efficient, and makes more power!
@@volvojohn9036 You're uneducated.
Since far more than 50% of Congress is big government and often buy global warming propaganda, it's likely they try to pass such regulations if we don't replace them with more Thomas Massies
Don’t forget, gets better mpg. And how would that correlate with more emissions?!
Rudolf Diesel has been spinning in his grave for a long time! Read the book, “The Mysterious Case of Rudolf Diesel,” by Douglas Brunt. No, I don’t get paid for promoting this book. It’s just that I’ve been reading the book and it’s very interesting. Diesel invented the engine to burn vegetable oil, nut oil, etc. Read the book. I think the Supremes did the right thing.
not really clean. they produce ALOT more NOx and PM.
Military deleted on all vehicles we shouldn't be the exception!
The actual reason military vehicles are deleted isn't because of emissions (funnily enough it doesn't have an effect) it's about them being able to run on whatever shitty fuel they can get wherever they are deployed. That being said it has no actual effect on emissions so why do we need dpf filters and such? OBSOLESCENCE it forces people who would have a 4-500,000 mile truck to purchase new trucks due to premature engine failure completely caused by build ups of carbon due to these emissions systems. It's all about company profit and not emissions to begin with.
no shit, its the military. you are so selfish lol.
@@maldenfoster wrong. it has a great effect on emissions.
@@bobwilus437 when tuned properly without def a diesel gives off less emission than gasoline vehicles, they just look dirty because of the black smoke( unburnt fuel) as far as how clean the fuel burns But in terms of gas mileage, diesel engines release 12.5 to 20% less CO2 per mile, making diesel the cleaner option over longer distances.
@@bobwilus437 a a dpf does is force the vehicle to burn all the unused diesel (more emissions then it throws pee, literal euria def in there to cool down the outrageously high exhaust temps that caused massive Forrest fires in Australia (reason why alstrailia allowed people to delete farm equipment)
These emissions have made engines too expensive for small business owners
The cost isn’t even the worst part, the reliability of said emissions is really what’s hurting Truckers, Fleet operators and Farmers.
@@MechanicalMafioso cost is a major issue for me as well .
@@TheREALLibertyOrDeath for personal use sure. Businesses however can use that cost as a write off. Obviously you and I, not so much. The killer for business is the associated down time due to emissions system failures, which thus far have been insane. Lack of replacement parts has only compounded the issues. Farmers can’t wait for weeks or months for their tractors to get fixed and truckers especially Owner Operators would be bankrupt be for the truck got fixed. Plenty already have.
@@MechanicalMafioso write offs are still a loss bud.

first things first, people who have been harmed absolutely must sue the EPA
They will lose until we get rid of Qualified immunity. The EPA will argue that they were working in good faith with current case law at the time and should have immunity.
Everyone operating a motor vehicle of any type has grounds to sue the EPA.
Let the lawsuits begin!!!
Haha yeah right.
@@jessedi Sue anyway, fuckem
I'm so glad so many other industries are jumping on this bandwagon like you said, EPA, ATF just to name a few who have been completely out of control.
Let's get rid of corn ethanol in gasoline. EPA sucks!
Ethanol not only cuts into fuel mileage, it also destroys every metal part it touches.
I personally love my car on E85 runs cooler and burns faster gave me over 1000rwhp 😏
E85, has its place. In the high performance world, people use it alot.
Basically, all I'm saying, we should have options (other than electric)
I can put high quality non ethanol in my tractors and machines that get used infrequently and it'll crank when I need it. The problem is finding it. I have 1 tractor that gets used maybe once a year and it fires up religiously except for may needing battery attention. I'm all for options.
Ethanol has its place but yeah I agree it should NEVER be mandatory. We have ethanol free gas here in Utah but it’s only 88 octane. I have to run 91 or higher.
I am curious as to what it would do to cost per gallon if it was un-mandated?
I've been watching the fallout of this case for the 2A. I'm so excited to hear the diesel community is getting excited about this.
I'm a fan of both big guns and fast cars, and this ruling was huge. My only worry is about giant factories now being bolder in dumping toxic waste into rivers and streams and the like 😬
Otherwise this is a good thing.
@@jacobm2625then its street justice for these untouchable CEOs
@@jacobm2625 well then congress should pass a law so the factories don't do that rather than letting the EPA make up stuff with no oversight. I love the environment and we should protect it as best we can but the epa making extrajudicial rulings isn't the way to go about it.
@@StrikeReyhi I'm fine with that 👍
Lobbying and buddy-buddy politician/billionaire bullshit makes that hard to actually make happen, however.
Here in Commifornia any vehicle after after 1975 has to have a smog inspection.When it use to be 25 years or older would be exempt.I found out somewhat recently that the good ol terminator himself(yes he was our governor) screwed that up.
He also gave us the 50 BMG ban......shooters just slightly trimmed and reformed the brass to make 50 DTC. They had commercials about 50 cal rifles shooting through cop doors, but failed to say that a 22lr can penetrate a steel car door and any of the far more likely choices of a person on a killing spree could do the same along with the fact that 50 is rarely used in crimes. I have a 79 C20 truck and 88 K5 blazer, both classic square bodies and have to deal with the smog BS.
Atleast diesels for us can be old as 97 without smog
Here in Florida, we have no emissions.
He started strong then turned into a big disappointment.
It's beyond dumb to do emissions for anything 20+ years old. It's only hurting car enthusiasts and poorer people at that point
I wonder if CAT will start making on highway truck engines again wouldn’t that be awesome
Dude I can’t like this enough. Been driving truck for the last four years first two broke down because of emissions every two weeks at least.
I’d want international to get back into the engine making industry too. EPA ruined their DT466 and VT365/MF7 engines since 2007. And caused them to quit making them.
My 2017 Cummins has been deleted soon as I bought it. I had it stripped and it staying that way good video bud. Keep it coming.
I've been searching all on YT for a vid on this topic every single day since Chevron fell.
Every. Single. Day. Thank you!
How is this any different since scotus already said EPA and ATF cannot make laws, its unconstitutional
This further reinforces those decisions and actually changes the standard the courts must use in any case.
we need to get rid of DEF FAST, electric is not the future!
Maybe electric hybrids will prove themselves useful, like that semi truck Topsy
Electric could be implemented if they come up with new technologies. We do not have the infrastructure to handle all electric vehicles.
Diesel-EV is the future.
Pure electric truck, batteries, and a 10K auto-start diesel generator.
@@GeoFry3 close. We don't need diesel for the generator if we harness solar energy properly instead of dirty, inefficient solar panels.
@spidergoose891 you can't put enough solar on a vehicle to use it daily. A 10K generator could add back 20-25 miles of range per hour. (Cybertruck uses about 450Whr per mile). 60mph would deplete the normal range in around 5 hours. The generator would extend that to 7 hours a fairly useful day of driving.
If nothing else Cummins should sue the EPA and get back that 2.9 billion dollars in fines they just settled.. He'll, maybe caterpillar could even sue them for lost Revenue though that would be much harder to prove.
1.6 million miles on my semi. Def has caused over 1/2 the problems in my semi VS the rest of the entire truck. Other than the engine rebuild, DEF has also been the most expense in repairs compared to the rest of the truck. Disconnected the Def system for additional repairs and my engine blew clean at all RPMs with the only exception being if I floored the throttle from low idle. When I did that, it smoked for about 2 seconds and that wasn't dark smoke.
Kenworth said my engine is a Clean Burning engine so it will blow clean with and without the dpf system.
Def doesn't stop the smoke, it just lowers NOx emissions, but def being urea (aka ammonia) it puts out toxic fumes from heating the ammonia which no study has been done on at all to see how bad that is. The worst thing for the engine is egr though, no matter how clean a diesel burns egr destroys the motor.
Which engine is this? Year?
Caterpillar was working on a prototype exhaust system in the late 2000s that would detect soot in the exhaust and fire up a propane fueled exhaust "afterburner" mounted in a separate muffler before the final one. This was before DEF but after DPF.
No idea how well it worked, but you never saw smoke coming from that machine, even when pushed hard.
I’m glad it’s been overturned, because what we do to improve how our diesel trucks run for better fuel efficiency and longevity should be up to us, Among other certain things.
About 3-5 months ago I started research on EV and the negative effects vs positive effects they have, here in about a month I’m petitioning my state in court to allow deleting diesels are you willing to sign a petition on it? I’m petitioning NV
I'll sign that petition, & im also a NV resident myself
Wtf everyone should be replying to this,start this petition and you’ve got my signature and all my friends too 🫡

This takes the teeth away from the ATF, EPA, SEC, etc. This is awesome.
I have been with truck master channel since the early days, it is so nice to see the channel growing and improving.
I had a 1985 GMC crew cab dually, when my 6.2 liter diesel heads cracked at about 545,000ish miles I could not find any 6.2 liter diesel heads and bought a 2004 Chevrolet 2500 with a 6.6 liter Duramax with transmission, that had been T-Boned at the rear axle, from the junkyard that bought it from an insurance auction, it had 1,900 miles on it, and I took Engine, Transmission, all the computers, the compete wire harness from front to back bumpers, dashboard, fuel tank, exhaust and anything else I needed to put it all in my 1985 square body, fabricated an adapter for the motor mounts, and created a new cross member altogether for the transmission, found a new yoke for the differential and had a new drive shaft made and went with a 1 piece instead of a 2 piece design, when I got it running, the first time I stepped on the gas pedal, I was amazed at how much more power it has, and it EASILY lit up all 4 back tires, something the 6.2 could never do, and about 4 months later I discovered something very awesome and unexpected, something about the gear ratios in the transmission and the differential, was somehow complementary to each other, but I was getting AMAZING mileage from the new engine, I only partially investigated and researched the phenomena that I had stumbled upon, but was please with the 37ish MPG that I was getting out of it, so IF you buy that square body, and BEFORE you do a Cummins swap on it, you might want to seriously consider a Duramax swap, if you can pick up one from an Insurance auction that is damaged in the rear, the work on the body and frame, might be worth the efforts.
37 mpg? You sure your odometer is accurately working?

It doesn't mean that we can tune. It means that it is up to us to sue the living crap out of the agencies that are preventing it and then working to make proper laws that make sense. The judgment said it did not shut down past laws/regulations but stopped new laws from being created from unregulated agencies. It is still illegal to tune and we the people MUST step up and do what we should have been doing for the last 100 years and making our voice the power instead of the government's voice.
The EPA knows best, Look at what a wonderful job they did with the gold king mine in Colorado! They took a very very minor problem and made a huge expensive disaster! Governments create problems so they can sell a solution!
If you follow the money, you will get at the real motive fie government does. Somebody got real rich.
Hopefully something changes man, I got stopped and randomly inspected in Maryland the other day. The trooper gave me a paper saying they as Maryland state troopers have the right to enforce state, local, federal including EPA laws if you are under suspicion of a violation. Keep in mind I did nothing wrong, I just had an exhaust tip which made him have the right to pull me over due to his “suspicion”. Funny part is this truck still has emissions 😂
UFB angering....
not even surprised with Md though, back in the day troopers used to be outside their car in the median doing radar and would jump out into the fast lane to make you slowdown and pull over. One of them musta gotten hit or something because that technique is long gone but it spoke to how bold they were/are.

This is a huge win for FREEDOM!!!!
The problem will still be at the local level. If emissions are mandated by the state on diesel engines in order to have the vehicle registered, the state could still refuse to have the vehicle registered if it failed an emissions inspection due to the vehicle being deleted. I'm using the state I live in (Colorado) as an example.
This.. Exactly.. The States.
I believe co it’s not a state thing. It’s a county by county thing
Well if all the truckers refuse to make deliveries to states with stupid emission rules it would be a real shame 😉

Previously-decided cases will remain, but future cases will be evaluated by the new standard. The agencies will still rule how they want until challenged in the courts. The rules can still be applied to you until the courts make the final decision, usually after years of fighting in court.
In short, you can still get in trouble and spend tons of cash in legal battles, but you might still win in the end.

Until they get real stupid and think they can physically disarm the people of The United States.
oh right because the government trying to reduce air pollution is tyranny. lord have mercy.
I work on the new stuff & we make a lot of money off of emissions issues. It is nice to have a clean tailpipe & not feel dizzy working on them having to deal with DEF stinks.
It would be cool to see brand new trucks come factory with a mechanical Diesel again like in the 1990s.
Even if the new stuff is factory deleted I’ll still take the old ones.
I think a movement should be started where everybody agrees, we dont buy any new trucks till the emissions crap is gone.
I’m in 😂👍
how does this channel only have 280k. love this guy very educated.
Omg that was my first thought when this was done away with I'm so stoked congress has to be the entity passing laws for us not unelected officials period
Read the SCOTUS ruling. They said they wouldn’t change rulings that were previously made. Which makes sense because that would involve 40 years of regulations.
They won't change them automatically but new lawsuits could repeal them.
@@bobbyj0708
That’s one way. Another is for Congress to act. But it’s going to be one issue at a time which will take forever.
@@PrivateEyeYiYi The CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) has over 185,000 pages.
That just means this particular ruling isn't going to overturn all of those because they have to be appealed in court. The reality is that it's going to take 20+ years of intense court battles to really strip power from the 3 letter agencies. Meanwhile the 3 letter agencies are just going to get even more aggressive with their new rules and enforcement until further challenges strip them of power.
The Chevron Deference was a bad legal decision because the Admistrative Procedures Act which predated it specifically says that courts are the ones to decide ambiguities in the law. This is what the Court said in the Loper Bright decision.
I had a 99 Dodge Ram 1500, with a 360. It had a catalytic covenverter issue twice. The second time we opted to core the Cat vs pay another $600 for a new one. Then I moved to AZ where there was emissions tests. Worried for 6 months, but then watched it consistently pass emissions for 5 years with no issue when I sold it. Even had a leaking plenum gasket.
I own a 97 with a 360 the PCM is still running the stock tune. the 420 code has not set both upstream and downstream 02 sensors are working too.
Legal and lawful are entirely different things. You’ve always been able to do it provided you understand what jurisdiction you reside in.
I'm not against cleaner running engines but not make them where they aren't reliable.
GM and Ford both sell diesel autos in Europe that get 25+ Mpg. They have been "Illegal" here. The thing is, if both vehicles are driven 100,000 miles, the total emissions is LESS ON THE ILLEGAL VEHICLE.. Because it burned less fuel to travel the same distance.
I’m pretty sure the Chevy Cruze diesel got way better than 25 mpg. Anyway, modern Euro diesels are just as strict as the US diesel as far as emissions. However, the EU generally focuses on a little different types of emissions vs the US. So, it’s certainly possible that even tho a EURO V or VI compliant diesel might be just as clean as a US tier 4, it might not be clean in the right places.
I can tell you that many EU vehicles have required gas particulate filters for years while they are just beginning to show up here.
I get 25+ miles a gallon on my 2021 GMC 1500 3.0L diesel.
They’re already doing away from dpf and they not offering any at the gas stations now but for these new trucks couldn’t tell you. But now it’s time to get of the epa on some level. They don’t believe in automotive industry. I agree with water and stuff but the rich are losing money on not getting their products sold hahahaha tuff for them
I just got rid of my diesel because of DEF failures. Hope this means good things coming
I'm with you, man. Let's do this!!!
I sure hope so
Truck Master.. I don't think the government or anyone for that matter should be able to tell us what we can or can't do with our vehicles that WE pay for.. If the government whats to give me a vehicle then I will leave it stock but don't tell me I can't modify a vehicle that I paid for. That is my decision. We have been modifying our vehicles since such a thing as the aftermarket came along. The government needs to do what "we the people" tell them to do, not the other way around. There are a lot more serious problems going on right now that they need to deal with than telling us what we can and can't do to OUR vehicles.
The court giveth and the court taketh away.
Lets go!!! We the people, this got me so excited. I just got my dream truck 2024 ram 2500.
Which obviously opened the door to tuning only to completely be shut down...
100% Grow & Continue What You Do Brother...! AMEN...
Totally agree with your views boss! Delete and program!
As a 2a American I hadn't even considered this ruling effecting my diesel addiction
Ooooh yeah! Government 3-letter agencies regulate all sorts of stuff you buy any use everyday.
I was actually more excited about this with regards to cars than guns. CAFE will be a paper tiger, and that means V8s won't have to keep getting killed off.
How many gallons of diesel does it take to make a Tesla battery ?
More than it will make up for being it's charged with oil and coal
Last time I looked it up it said over 20,000 gallons.
I'll do as I please.
You Sir, have my gratitude for sharing this nugget of knowledge.
My family, my guns, and my trucks are MY BUSINESS. Damn the “legality” of the latter two.
Be please be prepared to visit the court... you are going to get your wish... with out law and order you will need your guns son
@stanfordbanks3399 I mean with the way thi is are now law or not you gonna need weapons no matter what. Not trying to scale your comment UT what said kind of doesn't make sense
@@stanfordbanks3399 law and order is besides the point. I need my guns no matter what
Folks, this SC ruling is about 18 months late. 18 months ago the EPA was defeated by the State of WV. The SC ruled that the EPA did not have authority to make law. Only a legislative body has that authority, and that authority can not be delegated. I deleted my truck and was not worried about the legal ramifications because I understood the EPA v. WV ruling.
What you should now focus on is agencies like the DMV and the fact that they can't mandate registration or insurance on a vehicle. Your lender can say you must have insurance but not the DMV.
Yes and no. If you have a million to cover an accident then you don't need insurance. Now what happens when you don't see me walking in the cross walk because you where on your phone and missed your red light? I have to pay for my medical and take you to court all because you don't have insurance. Liability is and should be required. Collision after you have a title is your choice.
The thing is. We have told insurance companies what they need to charge us. We don't look at the speed or anything that is really related to driving. We are more interested in looking at the map telling us where to turn or what did that text say. If you don't know your oil temp, coolant temp, amp, rpm, or speed. Should you be driving. After you hit me if I asked you if there was anything parked on the street could you answer or would you have to look back at the street because you had no idea of what was going on.
That is the problem. People don't know what is going on around them. Driving is a privilege that in the USA we think is a right.
Now if you want to change that law then ok I'll play ball. Maybe if you get into an accident then you have to go to driving school. The point of said school would be for you to tell your instructor four things. What your instruments tell you, what is in your mirrors every couple of minutes and when you get through an intersection Three things. What was on the left side of you, ahead of you and to your right. I think that you would most likely not pass. Then you should find that you don't get to drive because you don't know what the bomb that you have control of is going into.
Now I ask you this? Can you tell me what was going on at the last intersection you traveled through. Now it's close to your house. You might just hit a kid sometime. You might feel safe in your car but I will think that you still have told a child look both ways before you cross the street and if you see a car make sure that the driver sees you before you cross the street. Now that you can kill someone you don't do that anymore.
Now I have people who honk and show me guns and stuff when I stop and take the time to look both ways after I have been at a stop for a while. Was that minute of my life worth more than your life? They thought so. If you want insurance to be less than next time you are a passenger ask the driver what they saw when they stopped at an intersection. If they don't know and it was only 30 seconds ago you need to ask them to stop the car and let you out. That person is placing your life and everyone's at risk. Maybe if we just did what we told kids we would not need insurance tell them I'm sorry to tell you that because of your friend who is going to hit something sometime. I don't want to have to pay for them destroying my car they should pay for it. So insurance will do that.
Driving is a privilege, not a right.
@josephhodges718 that is correct! However, you don't realize that the term driver refers to a professional driver. Initially, a drivers license wS required for cab drivers, truck drivers etc... This is like a CDL. However, over time the states altered the definitions so they could tax the public. There is a right to travel and the private, for profit, corporations saw an opportunity to squeeze more money out of the public. The Supreme Court has already ruled on this. Do some diligence before offering opinions.
No. This is incorrect. The DMV does not mandate insurance or registration as you are claiming. The requirement to have registration and insurance is done through law that was passed by legislatures and made those laws in the exact way you stated the SC requires them to. The state DMV’s are not making regulatory agencies nor do they set standards or enforce those standards.
@@jamesajandathis is also incorrect. The first driver’s license’s were issued in the early 1900’s and made no distinction between driving a private car or a truck for commercial use. In fact. Semi trucks weren’t even around until the 1920’s and driver’s licenses had already been around for decades in many places. A true commercial drivers license wasn’t even a thing in the U.S. until 1986.
I said all about emissions is just money for them because they want you to keep paying them every time they broke down.
Kory Willis has some bombshells ready. Hopefully we finally get some change.
Smashed the like button!! I am deleting my EGR and DPF on my 2008 Ford F250 in a couple of weeks. I already had the parts purchased and was going to do it regardless because I live in Nebraska & no one was going to be checking it here anyway.
Im so glad to hear this Josh, long overdue.
You should probably read what the Judges said about the Clean Air Act.
Unfortunately this ruling will not over turn the EPA's Clean Air ACT which was a bases for the Chevron ACT to begin with.
But it opens the door for all other ABC agencies that has made LAWS & RULES without going through CONGRESS.
So basically NO Deleting of the DEF Systems.
I've broken 200k on my LML and would prefer to rebuild rather than buy new, so this is encouraging for me. More than willing to spend 15 to 20K on an engine and tranny that operates efficiently.
Happy to see this on youtube
SUBSCRIBED! I agree that EGR equipment destroys otherwise long lasting engines. I have a Diesel BMW and the only problems with the vehicle at 130k miles are the emissions equipment! Peace on friend!
That's why it's important to elect the right people. To put trust in the judicial system is a little sketch. It seems some judges, not all, are more into activism than anything else. Unfortunately, money dictates everything. All these extra parts that are being made, no matter what industry, somebody is getting paid. I don't expect the bureaucracy to go down without a fight. But at least it's a start. Josh, thanks for this perspective. Hearing about this the last few weeks, I didn't even think about associating it with our diesels.
Even if everybody righteous, good and moral was elected today - it'd take 100 years to remove the damage that's been done.
DEI has infested higher education so naturally the bar has been lowered to accommodate everyone instead of weeding out the inferior and letting the cream rise to the top. Judges spend how many years living and breathing DEI nonsense before making to the bench ; now since they are elected, it’s up to people with brain cells to remove them and get actual competent judges installed.
If you need to see how wokeness is destroying the USA, look no further than SCOTUS. Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor are Biden and Obama (respectively) DEI appointed.
We the people cannot change SCOTUS or rely on SCOTUS for change; it has to start at the local levels and move up from there. We need competent leaders at the city and county levels first to stabilize things and (let’s be honest, voting R or D doesn’t work anymore- D just guarantees misery) get strong state leaders and legislators. America first candidates and libertarians are who will likely be best for America.
Trucks rolling coal is absolutely nothing compared to all the plastic problems, and they didn't try to fix that. Delete your trucks men and tell anything government related to fuck off.
What’s the best delete tube to buy?
If you're "ROLLING COAL" you're an idiot to begin with and know nothing about diesel engines. All your doing is putting so much fuel in that it can't burn it all. The extra fuel washes down the cylinder walls and ends up in your oil pan which thins your oil and will everything take out a bearing or all that extra fuel in the cylinder will burn a hole in the top of the piston.
Emissions are for manufacturers. Even "carb" is written for that. Extending it to the consumer who has to maintain the vehicle is observed. It is your property.
Thank you for covering the Chevron Deference and how it affects us hot rodders
I totally agree with your premise. But in all, actually, every since the federal and state government required licensing and registration of motor vehicles, no one actually ownes their vehicles. Especially when the fed and states put emission restrictions and requirements on the manufacturers. I wish i could delete my emission B/S on my diesel, but i don't have the finances nor the good luck not to get caught. So i painfully deal with the annual EGR cleaning and things associated with it. Thank you for your videos and the information you provide.
After-market parts makers are the heroes now that Chevron has been proven illegal. It will take 6-9 months to produce new parts to walk around the illegal modifications these guys did to our vehicles.
The next question is this: can we sue the govt to fix our vehicles? Lawyers should be lining up right now.
Here's something you didn't address. First it isn't the EPA that enforces the law, it's the USDOT and the States. Second, the LAW hasn't been ruled unconstitutional nor has enforcement of it. Thus you still can be fined or have your ride confiscated if you delete.
So, what do we do? Request that improvements be made and the be retrofitted to older vehicles. DEF is nothing more than refined horse piss. It causes reactions to reduce NOX pollution in diesel vehicles. The largest issue is that diesels create too much particulates, thus the soot problem. They actually burn cleaner than gas engines when that issue is resolved.
This is always overlooked when talking about the EPA and diesel emissions.
@@bobwilus437 The EPA is overall responsible for air and water cleanliness. However most of the enforcement is relegated to the States. That's why emissions testing in the State of Arizona and many other states is conducted by the State Department of Environmental Quality. Only a vehicle carrying a USDOT number can be checked by that agency.
That Square Body is a good candidate for a Duramax swap.
Nope..Cummins.
There was a Cummins swapped older Suburban at the Denver Mecum auction about 4 years ago.
Very nicely done.
I had a friend about 20 years ago. Do a Cummings swap on a truck just like that one it was great
Been waiting and sounding the alarm that this case might have amazing results for the normal citizens! ATF, epa, etc!
I love my deleted chevy!!😊😊😊😊
I can tell you as a kid growing up in Southern California in the 70's, pre emissions, the air was shit. It was brown and it smelled horrible. I would hate to see it go back to that.
It’s not that simple; it won’t go back. Late model pre-DPF diesels were very clean engines.
Then have clean air laws passed by elected representatives, not unaccountable bureaucrats, ours is not a Soviet state
Your electric car pollutes more. You just don't see it because it's not in your back yard.
@@kurthollyday4214 come on guy, you really don’t need to say stupid shit on a public forum.
Dont embarrass yourself
Well we don't put lead in fuel in cars any more. We have EFI in gas engines and modern diesel is very clean it's just not "clean" in the way the idiots in DC want.
By our constitution ONLY Congress can make federal law and the states of course can make laws for their citizens. However a state law cannot over ride a federal law, or the Constitution, same as a law made by Congress cannot make a law that goes against the constitution. NO agency can, by rule of law make laws. What they do however is shield these rules they can make with fines and imprisonment that makes it so they are by definition a law. ATF has been in over drive with their absurd gun "rules" doing this.
A area business keeps records. Strict records of 8 dsl pickups. A couple years back the DEF crap *fell off* just over 2 mpg increase across the board on these pickups. Multiple drivers, pulling mostly under 10k cargo trailers. * a couple used as pov, 3500 single axle trailer at most.
I had a 2016 Silverado with a Duramax in it. I bought it with 30k on it and within 10k I was having so many problems with check engine lights and other issues that the dealership just couldn’t fix. I did a complete delete on it and after that all of the problems disappeared. That truck finally ran like it should.
