No urea tank should give Dodge an advantage over Ford and GM for the diesel pickup market.

Yea, since, after the bailout, they closed North America plants and shipped everything to Mexico. All Dodge trucks built in Mexico.

My built-in-Mexico Ram (see signature) is probably one of the best vehicles I've ever owned. It has never seen the dealer's shop for a problem since I took delivery of it. That's consistent with other owners' experiences as posted on the TDR forums.

I'm not saying it's not a good built truck, I'm just saying you might have to take it back to Mexico for service if Dodge dealers keep closing up. We lost the whole Fenton plant here in St Louis.

odd as well
all the other cummins engines will have the def tank.
with all the global warming this year we should be able to help keep the temps up with just the particulate filter alone, I know mine is a HUGE heat maker
should have built a waste heat boiler around it for household hot water and steam for cooking
then we can add a suana
