Just when I think I got this truck thing figured out, the inlaws buy a 3rd gen. Well if they would have... I'd have a clue. They know nothing of diesel. Shocked the crap out of me they even looked at it. Last years camping must have impressed them. I have no gassers in the yard and all I ever heard from them is stinky, noisy, bla... then they go and buy HPCR.

I'd like to try and talk them into gauges since they will be towing their trailer, the trailer that killed the last truck

Can you do a BHAF or something similar on a 3rd gen? BTW, i don't know what year it is yet, I just want to help them down the slope

Hey Jeff, I moved this into the 3rd Gen area since your asking about a specific engine type and not a Cummins in general question. I'm hopin you will get more informed resposes in here.

A BHAF will work on a 3rd gen. A third gen is quite similar to the second gens.

OMG they got an 2007, QC, LB, 6.7, in the nice blue color.

I'm so jealous.
When I said that out loud my wife said, "We can't afford a new truck."

Unfortunately there hasn't been too many to play with the new 6.7 yet. I know there are a couple boxes out, but as far as anything else, I haven't seen it yet.

I've heard of a couple people that have the Juice/Attitude on the 6.7. I assume it gives performance gains similiar to the 06's.
