Yeah, for you you'd have nothing but problems with the 6.7L unless you decided to take the long way home a couple of times a week and got out on the highway. With not towing then you have to create enough boost to clean the sliding vane on the turbo another way and the only other way to do that is to accelerate hard up an on ramp for example a couple of times a week and remember to run the Exhaust brake all the time or you'd always be getting the P2262 (Turbo) code. The other problem is you'd probably never complete a full regeneration of the Diesel Particulate Filter.


But with that said, after owning a diesel I can't ever see myself being able to go back to a gas engine again. I was driving the Queens Nissan Titan while I was troubleshooting my truck and as much as I loved the Titan and it's balls to the wall 5.6L it still ain't no Diesel so I'd make the driving change..............
