slow stop
It climbs up pretty fast to 35

I think that not only due to the fact of less EGR being used for these newer 6.7s with their upgraded PCM strategy, but also think that possibly the design of the DPFs may have improved as well.

i agree the dpf technology has changed a good bit
my 21 took long long time at sustained highway speeds of 70 or more to do a passive regen
my 24 did a commanded one weds, it took less than 8 minutes to go from 20 to zero, right on time at near the 600 mile mark from last one, i think having a low soot load when it trips really makes a huge difference in the speed of cleaning.
at 65 mph
i can sense now , by a slight change in smell around the truck when it lights off
did i say i like this one alot,
i dont even look at other trucks any more
plus the bull dog likes the back seat area to lounge

egr reduction in the HO is a great easter egg, for sure

The big upgrade to the DPF system was the 9th injector of the 23 6.7s. I also meant that maybe the internal design of the DPF has possibly changed as well but who knows?
But no doubt directly injecting fuel in the DPF gets it hotter quicker to complete the active regens a lot faster and less miles...
You pulling anything for your truck to go 600 mile regen intervals?

If I am not mistaken, I believe the 20 6.7 started with the reduced EGR strategy IIRC but I could be wrong here... but maybe they had reduced it further and the result is the increased DEF usage.

I'm impressed... those new trucks just flat out work better emission wise than the older trucks... but they cost more so they should right?

You will notice your DPFDIS is 497 miles. The 23+ truck seem to have some programming that does an active regen every 497 miles It only takes 10 minutes because of the reduced loads and the more efficient 9th injector. But it still does a regen EVERY 497 miles, Regardles of what the DPF load is.

Now that I am thinking about it, my buddy has a 2026 F350 6.7. I will have to get underneath it and get a pic to compare to mine for schitts and giggles...
This one was at 939k miles. And IIRC, it was replaced free of charge (but could be wrong) because Ford wanted to look at it...
