Well, I haven't heard it applied to diesels as yet but,
"Urea IV" is a medication that increase urine flow so......unless your truck have an "Enlarged Prostate" or other urinary problems I don't think you should use it.

dont know much about the new system other then the manufactures want to get away from the dpf's. fuel economy is horrible with them and they want something more efficient

its supposed to work really well with no harm to fuel mileage but the only downfall is that you have to refill the tank that it uses.

well im glad its not acualy **** could you only immagin the smell. although when you pull off the side of the interstate to relive yourself it could come in handy when the state boy pulls off behind you "hey man my truck needed some ****...lol" on a serious note though i wonder how much it costs to refill, how much it uses, how much it cost to refill, and what happens if you run it empty.

i have installed a few test systems on class 8 trucks, 1 gallon lasts for about 100 gallons of diesel. its just injected into the exhaust, doesnt have an effect on ANYTHING but the chemical composition of the stuff coming out of the tailpipe. im not sure how much it costs per gallon.
