Nor on mine either. The new emissions strategy of using SCR has reduced the need for EGR. AAMOF, the new 6.7 engine doesn't eve have an EGR service schedule, and oil change intervals have been moved to 15K miles. I would expect the new V8 to work just as well, as Cummins has been on the forefront of emission control technology.

Did y'all realize that Cat got out of the over the road truck engine business just because of the emissions requirements.

In the US, now in China...

Sounds like they are going after the 3208 and 8.2 market here.

Never on my Cummins.
iirc, you have an 03, which wouldn't really have any of that stuff.

CAT got out of the highway engine business because of all the problems they had with their ACERT system. They are back in it in the vocational market, but I don't know if this is their engine alone or is a joint venture with Navistar. Pictures were taken at the Carlisle truck nationals this summer.
