      Precisely. The entire global population of cars and trucks (approx one billion) only constitutes a mere 0.5% of all carbon emissions and air pollution. Global shipping traffic driven by Trade with communist China has the carbon output equivalent to TWO-HUNDRED-BILLION cars. Hypocritical emissions standards on diesel has the same aim as gun control: abolishment. Nothing more.

After watching your videos and learning more about Duramax engines, I got a used 2011 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Duramax and I can’t thank you enough for the knowledge you equipped me with when test driving this vehicle. The cars salesman was blown away that a little 5’1” 28 year old knew how to check for blow by. You are honest and keep it to the point.

    Started watching cuz I was restoring/modifying an 01 LB7 that had sentimental value, got burned by a local shop on injectors, so I decided to do all the work on it myself.
    head gaskets, new bosch injectors w/ 45% nozzles, ATS kit for dual S&S Diesel supersport CP3's, 64mm billet turbo, Stage 1 Wagler AFO keyed camshaft, lift pump, cold air intake, tank sump, tuner, fluid balancer, ARP head studs, BUILT allison 1000 with triple disc TQ, all silicone hoses, electric fans, mishimoto intercooler, 3" exhaust turbo back w/ big up-pipes, wagler high pressure oil pump thats reverse pinned and shimmed. Watched a lot of your videos on these things as well as others. Also, I have a 2015 6.7 f-250 and a 2006 LBZ that I just do maint on but they are deleted and tuned too. Modded the LB7 because it never had any emissions on it and still doesn't. Let me tell you, She gets down, any hotter and I would lose towing capacity or 3/4 ton status and have to have the heads worked.
    The only things left are getting the suspension a little more sporty and painting the whole truck Candy Burgundy from House of Colors automotive paint.

      Except no matter how hard you try to stay compliant, it makes no sense monetarily to stay compliant when parts like the EGR, dpf, and def system inevitably fail.
      It’s no secret that the emissions systems on diesel trucks are far from robust and are only there to give governments more money.
      Advancement on fuel injection systems, our advances on turbo technology, and our advancements on tuning are plenty to make a truck with zero emissions equipment run clean enough to satisfy an EPA that’s not corrupt and money hungry.

    Sad part is the original clean air report says that when a truck idles for long periods of time is when the diesel pollute the most. So their solution is to add jugs of def and scare people that can’t afford the court costs. But a “deleted” diesel will pass emissions.

    Hey brother, fellow Vet here from east of Pensacola, FL. OEF14 (Kandahar and Bagram during same deployment). Got into the Army when I was 37, but got out nearly two years ago due to health problems. Health issues have been fixed, and at 51, I may try it again.
    In Afghanistan, I was a newly promoted E-5. Despite some skirmishes and complex attacks, I really enjoyed my time there. Like you, I drove the Maxpro Dash ISS, and performed Convoy Security in Support of Retrograde Operations. Also, aside from being a Team Leader, I was one of two Company Intelligence Support Team Members, recieving and disseminating Intelligence to and from S2 to Battalion and the Convoy Commander.
    Despite driving diesel trucks for a living since leaving law enforcement, I'll probably never get myself in a better position to own a Diesel truck, but if I did, I would most likely follow your lead. Aside from a divorce in which I lost everything, including a 2018 Z71 in which I bought brand new. My future is bleak in owning my dream truck. I'll have to make due with my old Impala, but that's life. I left law enforcement in 2014 and drive semis now (local, pulling doubles). My dream truck is a GMC AT4, but I may have to settle for an old Ford IDI LOL. But quik and clean if I did, non-deleted. Either way, I'm blessed!
    I ordered two shirts, one for my daughter and one for me. Being a single dad to my son many years ago, I learned to take care of my 8 year old daughter. Yessir, I spoil her.🤷‍♂️

Another guy told us that he's been driving his semi for a year, and he hasn't needed to refill his DEF system the whole time, and he hasn't seen the truck kick into regen mode. We have that system on dad's LB7, but that doesn't have emissions. I also have it on a Cat tractor. Again pre emissions. I'd love to see some dyno testing on this.

    I started watching your channel last March (2020). I had just purchased my first diesel Duramax GMC 2005 183, 000 miles in perfect condition. I found through a buddy of mine who is a mobile diesel mechanic Hangtime is his road name. I wanted to learn more about diesels and engines in general. I have always been mechanically inclined and of course as a teenager I worked my car 1967 Pontiac LeMans and my friends cars all the time. I also liked watching you because your a proud veteran who served his country faithfully. So there were a lot of things that just connected. Anyway I try to catch all of your videos overnight and I really like that you will respond to so many subscribers. Ok enough of this BS let’s talk trucks, diesel trucks. Be well and stay well brother, love from your brother veteran.

    Enjoyed your content after researching my lb7, I'm an exgasser. I have never been happier, the lb7 allison combo is insane!! She is stock too, updated stock injectors, stock turbo, only upgrades are ppe manifolds and up pipes to keep egts down (cant believe they came factory with kinked manifold) head studs. Dont even have a tune. I'm in it for long hall, turn key daily to tug a trailer with. I'm not one for black smoke it's to hard to wash off ;)

    You got me to buy the LB7 which has zero junk on it. Our state inspects trucks at traffic stops and you get a fix it ticket and a time frame to put everything back on the truck that it came with from factory. Doesn’t have to work but must be on the truck. The state troop said they go off the Vin number to know what the truck came with from factory. Your video on LB7 got me to buy one and I love it. Since the LB7 came from the factory with nothing they can’t do anything to me under this new laws. Thank you again for all the Great Videos

I have learned so much from your channel from trouble shooting to just plain knowledge! Keep the videos coming josh and thank you for your service! God Bless!

    I’m not sure how I came across your channel but it was sometime before the Victory Max build. I really grew to appreciate how you and Melanie raised your family, your faith in God and last but certainly least, was your military service to our country. When I heard your story months ago about being a wounded warrior, I was in with both feet. Any man or women who would leave their family behind to protect our way of life, is owed a debt that can’t be repaid with money. This is debt that can only be paid by unwavering respect and appreciation for those that have served, those that are serving and those that one day will serve. God Bless America and you and your family Josh.

    In California if you remove any clean air equipment you can't renew your tags and you pay a lot of money. On the flip side California have after market parts for your newer trucks. They have an id number. The clean air act does work. In the 1970s when you wake up in the morning you could taste and smell the exhaust from the cars and trucks. Now the air is a thousand times better. I have seen when a Cummins was deleted it picked up an easy 100 horse power and 200 foot lbs of torque. Is the power more important or is living more lmportant?

Since I had the last recall done (Block Heater) and my fuel filter changed its been been in the shop off and on the past 2 months for emission problems. Particular matter sensor regen incomplete fixed under warranty to the latest issue which they told me isn't covered under warranty 500 bucks the P20CB exhaust after treatment fuel injector control circuit Not to mention the Fuel Injector part is on back order and I had to prepay. They are to busy sending me emails on Electric vehicles even though I check the box that says not interested. Hopefully I can find a place in Western PA that can do the work.
