I like the exhaust brakes on my F-250. I don't use them for normal running, but do use them for steep downhill, and in transit through cities where traffic is heavy. They don't do away with regular braking entirely, but do give you a lot more control. I don't know about Dodge, but Ford is not real happy about the use of exhaust brakes on their diesels, and I would think that there is a potential for trouble in the event of a warranty claim. -Tom mailto:tom@tompatterson.com Website: http://www.tompatterson.com
