So for one the 19-22's are NOT 5th gen, they are 4.5 because they are NOT a new truck.
Second where the HE!! is the AISIN failures you mention??? I watched the whole droning video and nothing was mentioned about AISIN.
Why is he mentioning limp mode? His trucks should never go into limp mode unless he is running the DEF VERY low.
The authority on CUMMINS "turbodieselregister.com" has not mentioned a thing on this subject.

Those videos are horrible! nothing but repeat the same sentence from what I can see. He can cut both of them in half time wise, if he would not walk around the truck blabbering about nothing at all.
Got two minutes in, quit watching.
The link to the 22 page sticky came up after I looked at fish's second post.....
Still, this guy needs to get to the point sooner than later. I gave up on both at about 2 minutes.
My 02 on these video's.

Hey he's in your neck of the woods... He does like to ramble a bit and goes in circles, but his story is legit, just got to have some patience.

Here's another about the DPF's getting plugged on the Ram when not towing a lot. Quite the story and why the Hemi's are getting more popular year after year.

Thanks Troy. I was going to post that before you did but I knew the fan Boi's would whine about the it being YouTube, and it's fake and bla, bla, bla.
I wonder if Ford got their 7.3 valve train parts from the same off shore place Cummins got theirs?
It looks like the mid 70's to the mid 80's all over again.
I just went out and gave my low HP LBZ a hug.
Hot shotters are the canary in the cage for us RV'ers. Thanks again man.

"Hot shotters are the canary in the cage for us RV'ers."
Wow, you'd think the hot shotters would be using something other than Ram/Cummins if they're falling apart all along the roadside, but I seem to see just as many as ever. Maybe it isn't as big a deal as the youtubers, desperate for clicks and views, would want us to believe. Just a thought.

Ford people said the same thing when they bought the new the new and improved engine called the 6.oh back in 2003. They then said the same thing about the 6.4. Remember, the 6.oh was the best selling diesel engine back in the time by far. Does that make it a good engine?
It's all fun and games until it's your turn in the 80 grand barrel, then you would have wished you would have paid attention to the canary with his feet pointing up in the cage.
