Ohhhhhh man.........Drove a 6.7/Aisin today

Why did I do it!?

It was a very impressive machine I have to say. Even a Regular Cab CC DRW rides better than my '98! The engine is very quiet, the exhaust makes almost no odor. I mean don't get me wrong, I like the aroma of a good old school diesel but it was impressive nonetheless. The Aisin is very refined and holds the tach around 1700-2000 shifting up through traffic under a good medium pedal. The exhaust brake is a jewel! Takes about 2-3 seconds to come in and then hauls you down. It kinda does sound like a Jake or C-brake but much quieter. A fine machine I must say.
