Gas-powered pickup trucks are no match for diesel pickups when it comes to towing capacity for the demands of Central Valley agriculture. Their fuel economy, torque, and exhaust systems get heavy-duty hauling jobs done. Diesel pickups also make monetary sense when you log in on your business fleet of vehicles and plan to keep them in service for years to come. The drawback: the cost of maintenance.
In the past, a gunked-up diesel particulate filter (DPF) spelled trouble. One telltale sign is when you experience a loss in fuel economy—a truck frequently needs to regenerate, or self-clean the DPF by over fueling for a short time to raise the temp of the exhaust system. Run a DPF into the ground, and that glowing light on the dashboard is the ominous sign that calamity is ahead for your bank account.
Until now, the expensive fix includes a trip to the dealership for a new DPF to the tune of thousands of dollars. They are not equipped to offer DPF cleaning and repair services, so they drop a new DPF in and charge you retail prices for the unit, plus expensive labor.
